Personal Note:

I was brought up in the Catholic faith, not only by my parents, but by my entire extended family. I cherish my memories growing up as a Catholic, and I am thankful for the opportunity to share my faith with the children that I teach at Holy Cross.

I live in Batavia with my husband Brian, and my dog. I enjoy walking with my dog, reading, gardening, snow-skiing, and hanging out with family. My children are now on their own, and I especially enjoy visiting them whenever possible.
