About The Publisher: CJ

Hi, I’m CJ Walker, your new Macaroni KID Richmond publisher! 

I’ve been a supporter of Macaroni KID Richmond for over 7 years. It's a privilege to pick up the torch and build on the incredible foundation that Carissa built for the last 14 years. I've certainly got some big shoes to fill!

I was born in Richmond but spent part of my childhood in California until I returned in 1992. 

I’m a wife of a techie, a homeschooling mom of a teenage performing artist, an almost teen coder/scientist and an almost pre-teen railfan. I'm passionate about writing, cooking, crafting, and spending quality time with my family. Serving my community is also close to my heart, particularly supporting young entrepreneurs, families, and individuals with chronic conditions.
