Welcome to my page!

I am a second year Biology teacher at Paramus Catholic High School in New Jersey. Before working here in NJ, I taught for two years at an all-girls Catholic school in Honduras. I am very excited to continue teaching this year and to continue inspiring young minds to become scientists.

I am also an assistant Cross Country, Indoor Track, and Outdoor Track Coach. Distance running, and athletics in general, are important to me because they teach young people the value of hard work and discipline, as well skills like time-management.

In addition to teaching and coaching, I am very involved in the Campus Ministry and service programs at PCHS. The most important aspect of Catholic schooling is that a student not only grows academically and athletically, but that he or she has the opportunity to develop Christian morals. I firmly believe in this facet of Catholic schooling and strive to inspire students to a Christian lifestyle both in and out of the classroom.
