Dr. Makeeba McCreary has been appointed chief of staff to Boston School Superintendent Tommy Chang. McCreary has spent 20 years in the educational policy field. She has designed and managed philanthropic investment for global brands such as Nike Inc., Jordan Brand, National Boys and Girls Clubs of America, and Darden Inc. Additionally, she has built multi-sector, collective impact models throughout the nation focused on driving resources into underserved communities with a priority commitment to youth and families.

Dr. McCreary’s early career was spent in direct service organizations working with youth. In addition to working with students, she has designed, programmed and supported team-problem solving with urban public school teachers in order to reduce the disproportionate special education designation of black and Latino children, particularly boys.

McCreary received her B.A. from the University of Massachusetts Boston, an M.Ed. from Harvard University and an Ed.D. from Teachers College, Columbia University.
