Why teaching?: From a very early age, I knew teaching was my calling. Not only do I have the pleasure of educating young minds, but they inspire me as an educator too! I have had the honor of teaching a variety of subjects and grade-levels and it has been an absolute blessing.

Why St. Pius X?: St. Pius X has a special place in my heart. For those who do not know, I taught for 7 years at St. Pius X in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. I felt St. Pius X and the Holy Spirit called upon me to continue my career here and I cannot wait for the school year to commence! I look forward to attending mass daily with the students, and infusing Christ in all that we do. St. Pius X is offering some new and exciting electives to set us apart from the other Diocesan schools. We are excited to offer them, so please come check us out! 

What do you do in your spare time?: In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, playing soccer, and cooking. I also love cheering on my son during his soccer games!
