About Montgomery Jones
Believer in equity in education. Two year AmeriCorps Member alum. Proud Girl Scout Troop Leader. Literacy activist and advocate for getting diverse works of literature in to the hands of our youth. I have traveled the world, interviewed celebrities on television, written articles for movie studios, and spoken at the United Nations. However, I always circle back to my true passion, which is helping others in the educational sphere. My passion for education and literacy has prompted me to fundraise thousands of dollars in books for underserved youth as well as create interactive and comprehensive lesson plans to get conversations started. I believe in completing your task and going beyond it. As an impassioned individual, going above and beyond is what I enjoy most about working in a field that helps others.
