Jennifer (Economos) Green

Jennifer (Economos) Green (COM’91) of Edgewater, Md., is the chief executive officer and cofounder of Urban Teaching Center, which aims to build a corps of effective, well-prepared educators through a rigorous, four-year residency program that trains and places new teachers. The program is intended to reduce teacher burnout, give schools more stability in their workforce, and ensure that partnering districts—now in Baltimore and Washington, D.C.—are able to hire high-quality teachers. Prior to cofounding UTC, Jennifer was the director of curriculum and instruction for Baltimore City’s public high schools.
