My name is J.C Jackson. I am a performer, public speaker, educator, and writer. I have been writing & performing the unspoken stories around me since I was 4 years old. I have been in the education community teaching literacy for over 10 years. Currently, I am the District Instructional Technology Specialist where I support all the Library Media Specialists of a school district in Houston. Last year, I published the book, "Elijah Broke the Gate" (EBG). True performance pieces about child loss. In Oct. 2022, I premiered the theatrical production of (EBG) at Midtown Arts Center.
I am a great public speaker. I would describe myself as authentic & whimsical. Book me for your next event!
Jayce and her husband came to speak to our audience of Senior residents. She told us her amazing story in a very moving and impactful way.
