About Jarmel A. Bell, EdD
Dr. Jarmel Bell is the Founder of Bell’s Education and creator of the “I Am Me: Know Who You Are” program focused on social and emotional learning. By harnessing a passion and commitment to the development of people, Jarmel has made a career of studying and teaching the importance of communication and moral standing - understanding a society that cannot communicate is a misunderstood society.
​
Outside of my work, Jarmel enjoys staying active through pickleball, golfing, and basketball, and enjoys listening to music, traveling, and spending time with his family. Those moments keep him grounded and remind him why he does this work.
