His experience in the the field of education includes 14 years as a teacher and administrator. 

While serving as Principal of Pearl High School in Pearl, Mississippi, from 1997-2000, Roy, his students, and his staff experienced a life-altering event when a student gunman entered the school and killed two of his fellow students, and injured seven others. That experience, along with the subsequent shootings that have occurred around the nation, has led to his current involvement in the field of school violence and crisis management. He serves as President of School Safety Consultants, LLC, a national school safety consulting firm. In that role, he travels extensively throughout the United States and Canada, speaking and conducting seminars and training.

Roy is available for keynotes, seminars, and workshops which provide fact-based information needed to increase sensitivity to the far-reaching effects of school violence. Specific topics include identification of warning signs, characteristics of safe schools, dealing with the media, crisis management, and the development of an effective crisis management plan.
