Macy is a passionate and innovative PYP Teacher Librarian at ESF Kowloon Junior School, who believes in empowering students to become leaders and lifelong readers. Originally from Vancouver, Canada, she now proudly calls Hong Kong home.

With a unique background trained in both mathematics and teacher librarianship from the University of Hong Kong, Macy has a proven ability to facilitate dynamic learning environments. She has successfully reinvented the traditional school library into a vibrant, student-centered hub for learning and ideas. At the heart of this transformation is her philosophy of student choice and ownership.

Under her guidance, the KJS library is co-managed by a team of dedicated Library Ambassadors. These student leaders take genuine ownership of the space—from planning and selecting books to decorating for celebrations and organizing major events like Book Week and community outreach programs with partners like Bring Me a Book Hong Kong. Macy’s role is to facilitate, enabling students to flourish as they curate a library that truly reflects their voices and interests.

She is eager to share her successful model of transforming a library into a dynamic, student-led community space that fosters a genuine love for reading and leadership.
