40 Under Forty Awards: Fred Kaelin

by | Sep 23, 2013 | Blog

Are you as surprised as we are… that after 17 years of working at Dynamy, Fred is still under 40? Yes, he was a child prodigy and started his career at the early age of 7. Ok, so we may have exaggerated a bit on his age.

Fred Kaelin, Executive Director is an honoree of Worcester Business Journal’s 40 under Forty award. Since 2000, the Worcester Business Journal has identified leaders in Central Massachusetts to acknowledge them for their dedication and achievements within the community.

Upon meeting Fred, you may not realize his many accomplishments, which includes participating in the White House’s Community Leaders Engagement Series, facilitating a merger in his first year as Executive Director, and starting the first Dynamy unicycling group. (One of these achievements may not true).
