Background
I hold the position of director of educational outreach and teacher placement in the Educational Studies Department. My work involves connecting 51¹ÙÍø students and curricular activities with teachers, schools and school systems.
Prior to joining the 51¹ÙÍø faculty, I founded Freedom Readers, an after school and summer literacy program. Published in 2020, Forever Free: A True Story of Hope in the Fight for Child Literacy, chronicles the organization's development.
