Current Research
My current research seeks to better understand the historical work performed by HBCUs to train cadres of teachers across time and space. It is hoped that this understanding may help us better address the underrepresentation of people of color in the U.S. public school work force.

In addition to my current research project, my research interests also include culturally relevant teaching, literacy, African Diaspora Studies, Hip Hop Based Education, and community engagement.
