Tommy Chambers, a program director at JFF, leads the implementation of a Student Information System designed to provide the secure storage of a collection of data about students attending early college high schools and a suite of analysis and reporting tools to turn this data into actionable information about student performance. These data and system capabilities provide information and analyses to guide the development and improvement of early college high schools. It also provides evidence on how well early college high schools are achieving their mission: to help young people progress toward the education and experience they need to succeed in life and a family-supporting career.
Prior to joining JFF, Mr. Chambers operated Aim2Win Solutions, LLC, a small professional services company that provides management and technology consulting, professional and personal development services, and professional speaking services. He also has served as director of the Early College High School Initiative for SECME, Inc., at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Mr. Chambers has extensive software engineering, technology, and technical management experience. He was a lead software engineer and flight controller at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, a software engineer and software engineering manager at Skytel/MCI, a computer programmer at the U.S. Geological Survey, and president of Intelogix Corporation of Acworth Georgia. In addition, he served six years as an adjunct professor of computer science at Hinds Community College in Jackson, Mississippi.
Mr. Chambers holds a B.S. and M.S. degrees in computer science from Jackson State University, Jackson, Mississippi.
