Thanks for your interest in my background!

I am the co-founder and co-director of the Building Our Network of Diversity (BOND) Project, a nonprofit that supports the recruitment, development, retention, and empowerment of male educators of color. I am also the Manager of the Professional Development Schools Program and Institutions of Higher Education Partnerships for Anne Arundel County Public Schools in Maryland. I have been leading professional learning with school staffs for more than 20 years and across a variety of topics.

During my 28 years as an educator, I have had a wide range of experiences as a teacher, coach, principal, district administrator, adjunct professor, speaker, writer, and consultant. I am also a graduate faculty member at the University of Maryland at College Park and an adjunct professor at McDaniel College and University of Maryland Global Campus, where I lead graduate courses relating to teaching strategies, research methods, and antiracist education. I support university partners by serving on educator preparation councils for Bowie State University, Morgan State University, Towson University, the University of Maryland College Park, and Walden University. 

In addition to hosting the BONDCast, an audio podcast available on all platforms, and co-hosting #UMustLearn, a live public radio show in Washington, D.C., I have authored peer-reviewed research and authored my first book. The Antiracist School Leader: What to Know, Say & Do, is on sale now. If you would like more detailed information about my background, you can find it on my CV.
