One Gift You Bring to MDI: I have a great passion to teach.

Why MDI?

I love teaching. I have been a teacher my whole life from taking my younger sisters out onto the deck to do Sunday school with them when I was barely eight, to leading a religious education girls group called Little Flowers from eleven years old to when I graduated high school.

Why Marian University?

My mom and sister went to Marian and I was a student here as a high school student. I always felt at home here and knew I wanted to be a San Damiano scholar. I didn't really look anywhere else when choosing my college. I knew that God would take me where He wanted me and I was confident that I was called to be at Marian.

More about you! Fun facts, experiences, & hobbies:

I love acting (obviously), dancing and singing, reading, research projects. I also love martial arts and doing puzzles with my baby sisters (the youngest is twelve now so not really babies anymore...)
