Background
Tiffany Barnett manages and creates content for the School of Education’s websites, including ed.unc.edu, and its digital signage platform. Her passion for storytelling led her to pursue a degree in journalism, and she began her career as a newspaper reporter before earning a master’s degree in urban education. She taught third grade in Memphis, and when she left the classroom, she transitioned to higher education communications, writing and editing for the Division of Student Affairs at Virginia Tech. Most recently, Tiffany served as a strategist for a communications consulting firm supporting nonprofits and foundations. Outside of work, she enjoys reading, listening to podcasts, hiking with her best four-legged friend, and cheering on the Tar Heels with her husband.
