Professional Educator, Librarian & Technologist

I grew up in a south Memphis neighborhood called Walker Homes.  As a poor kid, there was one safe air conditioned place I could go to in those hot summers.  It was a small 200 square foot mini library attached to the Mitchell Community Center.  That library and librarian changed my life, gave me the opportunity to see the world through books, and the chance to have a better life.

As an educational leader, I am committed to serving as a resource, advocate, and collaborator for students, faculty, and staff. My goal is to cultivate an inclusive and supportive environment that encourages achievement, innovation, and lifelong learning. By combining my expertise in education, library science, and technology, I strive to bridge gaps, remove barriers, and create meaningful opportunities that empower all members of the school community to reach their full potential. Together, we can build a culture where every student succeeds, every educator is valued, and every voice is heard.

LIBRARIES ENHANCE SCHOOLS AND IMPROVE STUDENT SUCCESS
 

School libraries play a vital role in student success by strengthening literacy, supporting classroom instruction, and providing access to technology, research tools, and innovative learning experiences. Research consistently shows that students in schools with strong library programs and certified librarians achieve higher reading and academic performance. By incorporating STEAM activities such as coding, robotics, engineering challenges, and maker spaces, libraries become dynamic learning hubs where students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration skills. Together, reading and STEAM initiatives help prepare students for college, careers, and lifelong success while supporting teachers and enhancing overall school achievement.

A modern school library is no longer simply a place to check out books. It is a center for literacy, innovation, technology, creativity, and student achievement. Research consistently shows that schools with certified librarians and strong library programs experience higher reading achievement, stronger academic performance, and improved student outcomes. By integrating STEAM into the library through maker spaces, coding, robotics, engineering challenges, and inquiry-based learning, schools create environments where students not only become better readers but also better problem-solvers, innovators, and future leaders. The combination of literacy and STEAM transforms the library into one of the most powerful spaces in the school for accelerating student success.
