Christina Vickers has been a proud English Teacher in K-12 public, private, and religious schools for more than 15 years.  As a passionate educator, she is dedicated to using technology to create community impact.  As a first-generation Jamaican-American, she is proud to have a B.A. in English from George Washington University,  a M.ED. in Secondary Education from Howard University, and a M.S. in Business Management from the CUNY.  Beyond this, she is also a founding member of the NYC teacher’s union caucus, UFT Solidarity, and the new AMS IV Charter School Union Chapter.  She loves TpT and is a single mother of her nine-year-old son, Ryan.  

Ms. Vickers’s vision for non-DOE is to grow and develop a communication network among Non-DOE to identify and meet the needs of these educators. 

She knows that non-DOE are vital to the sustainability of DOE at large and has perspectives that will help the UFT.  She is running because she will commit to serving her fellow educators in a way that makes sense for everyone.
