"I believe this is a great opportunity for me to interact with people across the country, from varied backgrounds, who have one common goal—to positively impact children through a quality educational experience," Davis said. "Education is one the most complex aspects of our society, and the professionals at McREL understand this and are committed to improving the experience for all."
