Stephanie Jones is an undergraduate student at Virginia Commonwealth University, pursuing a BA in Political Science with minors in Nonprofit Administration & Management and African-American Studies. Her passion for history and civil advocacy began early as she acquired more than 200 volunteer hours at the Maggie L. Walker National Historic Site and through various community groups that focuses on fostering unity and communal power. Through this early exposure to historical archiving, and social and economic justice, she began to understand the importance of maintaining personal ownership of one's own narrative. She hopes to hone her skills as a beginning coder and historical archiver to ensure the hidden histories of the marginalized are accessible for use in educational and private spaces.
