Joyce McDonough brings over two decades of experience in education, nonprofit program management, and strategic development. Her career spans roles in philanthropy as a grant maker and development director, education consultant, and classroom teacher. Joyce still considers herself a teacher, stemming from her first students as a Teach For America 2002 corps member in the Mississippi Delta, which cemented her passion for equity and social justice. Prior to joining GEO, Joyce worked as a consultant for SchoolWorks, a national education consulting firm with the mission of advancing all aspects of student learning and well-being. In her free time, Joyce enjoys being active – both in her community and on her feet. She is most proud of her family, especially her three children.
