Jeuel Davis

Jeuel Davis joined Clemson as Director of Life Skills & Community Service for Clemson Football’s P.A.W. Journey program in April 2022.

Hailing from Tampa, Fla., Davis experienced adversity in her transition to Clemson, S.C., which became the
catalyst for her passion for education, equity, empowerment and leadership. Thus, she answered the call to educate, and after graduating from Vanderbilt University with her bachelor’s in Secondary Education and English, she taught English to grades 7–12 in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee. With the “Jeff Davis Spirit of Leadership” being instilled in her as Jeff and Joni’s fourth daughter, Davis has always embraced the role and responsibility of leadership, which she exhibited as a grade-level and subject-level lead at every school at which she taught.

She also demonstrated her passion for developing young people holistically through her work as a middle school basketball coach, mentor, FCA adviser and more. After seven years of teaching, Davis obtained her Master of Education in Administration and Supervision from Clemson in 2020 before serving in a school leadership role as the Dean of Instruction for Literacy.

After her tenure in Tennessee, Davis moved into her role as the Director of Life Skills and Community Service for P.A.W. Journey. She leads P.A.W. Journey’s C.U. in Life pillar, which includes organizing
and facilitating civic engagement for Clemson’s football scholar-athletes, spearheading annual P.A.W. Journey initiatives like the Player Symposium, and building relationships with each young man on the team in order to learn how to best support and mentor them.

Whether she is adding Mental Health Moments to the calendar during Fall Camp, emphasizing the establishment and execution of P.A.W. Journey’s curriculum, or contributing to P.A.W. Journey defining its
vision, mission and values, Davis is passionate about the supremely important work that P.A.W. Journey models for the industry of student-athlete development.
