Stuart Lemay is a Placement Associate at Carney, Sandoe & Associates, where she leads the World Languages placement team. She loves working with educators and independent schools across the U.S. and abroad, helping teachers find opportunities where they can thrive both personally and professionally. Stuart works closely with candidates throughout their job searches, offering personalized guidance and support on everything from resumes and application materials to interviews and evaluating employment offers and school communities. She also enjoys building relationships with schools, getting to know their communities and hiring needs, and helping them find great educators, especially for those hard-to-fill positions that require a little extra creativity.

Before joining CS&A, Stuart served as Assistant Director of Admissions at Portsmouth Abbey School in Rhode Island, a position she found through Carney Sandoe! During her time at the Abbey, and in typical boarding school fashion, she wore several other hats as a houseparent, advisor, and squash and tennis coach. Those experiences gave her a firsthand appreciation for the many ways educators contribute to school life beyond the classroom and helped shape her passion for making the right match between schools and candidates.

Stuart graduated from Dickinson College with a B.A. in Educational Studies, where she was also a member of the varsity squash and tennis teams. A proud graduate of Westover School and the daughter of two lifelong educators, Stuart has been surrounded by independent schools for much of her life. Having experienced the CS&A placement process firsthand, she understands both the excitement and challenges that come with a job search and enjoys helping candidates navigate that process with confidence.

Stuart joined the firm in 2021 and lives in Providence, Rhode Island.
