Job Titles Of The Future

by Jen Grosso

CHIEF SUPER MOM

WHO Jill Dalby Ellison
(jill@besunsensible.org)
COMPANY ActivityOne.com
AGE 34
HAS HELD TITLE FOR 13 months
PREVIOUS TITLE PhD candidate, < br/>Harvard University

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s Jill Dalby Ellison, chief super mom at ActivityOne.com, where you can learn about community arts, music, and sports activities. In addition to
her content-managing duties on the site, she’s a volunteer at Planned Parenthood, the alumnae-association class president for Wellesley College, and the head of her son’s Tiger Cub troop.

How did you become chief super mom?
Well, it wasn’t from a radioactive-spider bite. The title is a combination of what I do in my personal life and what I do in my professional life.

How do you use your superpowers?
I help parents organize their families. At ActivityOne.com, you can find out which acti- vities are available in your community, enroll online — even purchase the necessary
gear.

Golly, Super Mom! How do you do it?
I use my trusty network of super parents, of course! Who better to fill me in on family activities than the people who are involved
in them?
