About The Teacher
I am a second-career educator. I left a successful career as an IT project manager/director in healthcare to become an educator. What led me down another path? God has a way of getting His way! I was a catechist in the religious education program of our parish in California for 4 years and year-by-year, it became more and more obvious what I should really be doing. So armed with my Bachelors and Masters in Management and Leadership, I began the teaching credential program at Concordia University. I am an example of a lifelong learner! This is my fifth year at St. Raphael. My journey on the way to St. Raphael included the Diocese of Joliet as a Catechetical Associate for Catechist Formation and Whole Parish Faith Formation in the Religious Education Office, the Director of Religious Education at St. Anne in Oswego and a fifth grade teacher at St. Mary Immaculate in Plainfield. On a personal note, I have four beautiful grandchildren that bring my husband and I great joy! I love to garden and read and have even dabbled in watercolor and pastels.
