"I have been active in the classroom since 2016, both as a substitute teacher and as a volunteer. At St. Rose-McCarthy, I look forward to the opportunity for individual growth and student growth.


It is a great achievement the moment a student begins to understand what I have been teaching and is so excited to learn more. I find so much joy and humility in those moments.


Working with different personalities has really pushed me to show love in a variety of ways, as well as to encourage continual learning, both for myself and for my students.


When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and pets. I love to bake and cook. Feeding my family and friends gives me a lot of joy and feeds my love language. If you ever would like some pastries or a meal, please do not hesitate to ask me!"
