Darren Cummings holds a BA in Sociology from Binghamton University and an MSEd in Higher Education Administration from Baruch College. He brings a rich background in program management and human development to his work on the CUNY Honors Business Hub.

Prior to Macaulay, Darren served as Supplemental Instruction Coordinator at John Jay College and actively contributed to the institution’s Math and Science Resource Center. He played a pivotal role in recruiting, nurturing, and training a team of more than 20 tutors and took pride in creating a supportive environment for students, facilitating their transition into college life and adulthood.

Darren began his career working at a mental health clinic and a teen homeless shelter in Shreveport, Louisiana and contributed significantly to the NYC Department of Education’s YABC (Young Adult Borough Centers) program. This initiative assisted under-credited and overaged students, aged 18-24, in attaining their high school diploma by providing comprehensive support. Over 500 students graduated during his six-year tenure.

Born in New York City, Darren’s family roots extend to Southern Georgia. In his spare time he is a massive music fan and a serious bread baker.
