Proudest Teaching Moment:

I love to see former students in middle school reading at Mass knowing that reading was a struggle for them in 1st grade. It supports my favorite phrase: We all learn at different times. I enjoy when first graders act as the teacher and they imitate me.

Why do you love teaching at Holy Redeemer?

I love being able to share my faith with the students and being in a school where faith is displayed all around the school. The families are very supportive in their child's education.
