Entering Trinity Episcopal School as a
7th-grade student, Alumna Elizabeth Keedy
de Obando stayed at the school until her
graduation in 1992—making her a member
of the first class of graduates from the
newly-merged Palmer Trinity School. Upon
graduation, Elizabeth left Miami to earn a
Bachelor of Arts in Art History from Kenyon
College, in Gambier, Ohio. Moving to
Southern California for a publishing job with
Cherie Carter-Scott, Marianne Williamson,
and the Chicken Soup for the Soul Group,
Elizabeth returned to South Florida a year
later to become a teacher. She earned a Master
of Arts in Literature from Florida International
University in 2001, and still wanting to pursue
her education further, headed north to attend
Yale University, where she graduated with a
Master of Arts and Religion in 2003. Today,
Elizabeth lives in Granada, Nicaragua, where
she and her husband are two of the founding
members of Sacuanjoche International School.
