Dr. Tiffany Reed
Founder and CEO
I am passionate about ensuring that every child, no matter their socioeconomic status, has access to resources to develop the skills needed for academic success. Growing up in a large Metropolitan area and attending schools that were not always fully equipped to provide students with the needed resources, I know first-hand of the impact that a lack of support can have on a student’s ability to perform well academically. However, with the support of family, teachers, and other community members, I was able to excel and successfully complete the highest levels of school. As a result, Gap Bridgers is committed to working with families to ensure that they have access to resources to help bridge educational gaps so that our students can achieve all that they are destined to become.
As a certified tutor with several years of experience, I have a proven ability to help inspire others to pursue academic success. Currently, I hold a Master of Business Administration (MBA), a Master of Science (MS), and a Bachelor’s degree in English Composition. I also hold a PhD in Organizational Leadership. Additionally, I am a certified tutor, with several years of experience with face-to-face and
on-line-teaching techniques.
​
Although I have accomplished several academic achievements, my greatest attribute is my personal commitment to partnering with families and community members to ensure that our youth have access to educational programs that can help them to thrive academically, as well as socially.
