About Me
Hi, I'm Victor!
​
Welcome to my corner of the world! I am a lifelong learner with a deep passion for exploring the complexities of our country's history and seeking answers to the most pressing questions. As a firm believer in the power of knowledge, I strive to understand the impact of our actions on others and the significance of treating one another with empathy and compassion.
​
Family is at the core of my life, and I take immense joy in being a loving husband to Jennifer, a devoted father to our daughter, Yvonne, and a proud companion to our K-9 friend, Challa. When I am not spending quality time with my loved ones, I indulge in creative pursuits like writing songs and poetry. Music is a significant part of my life, and I'm particularly drawn to the rhythms of Hip Hop and R&B. Additionally, I find solace and excitement in sports, especially basketball, and soccer.
​
Professionally, I am a Restorative Justice Advocate with a solid commitment to creating more equitable learning spaces for black and brown students. Through my journey as an Educational Leadership for Social Justice Doctoral Student, I have gained valuable insights into the educational system and how we can end the School to Prison Pipeline.
​
As a former K-12 Teacher and Administrator, I have witnessed firsthand the impact of advocacy for social justice in education. I am grateful for opportunities to use my voice to bring about positive change. I have been fortunate to share my message on platforms such as Leading Equity Summit, Cult of Pedagogy, and Learning for Justice (formerly Teaching for Tolerance).
​
My dedication to social justice extends beyond the virtual world. As a Restorative Justice Activist, Facilitator, and Trainer, I strive to build a fair and inclusive society. Through initiatives like #RJLeagueChat on Twitter and Voxer, I engage with others in meaningful conversations and actions to promote equity and anti-racism.
​
As an Anti-bias and Trigger Coach, I actively work to dismantle biases and encourage growth in individuals and institutions. Pursuing equity, inclusion, and anti-racism remains at the forefront of my endeavors.
​
Join me on this journey of learning, advocacy, and hope for education and social justice. Together, we can make a difference and build a brighter future for all. Thank you for being a part of this transformative endeavor.
