I was born a cradle Catholic and was blessed to attend parochial elementary and high schools. My professional career started in the field of architecture. My only regret about that profession was that I never got the chance to design a Catholic church or chapel. Wanting to fulfill a desire to work closer with people, I eventually transitioned to the education field to work as a para-professional, primarily assisting with special education students. Working with those children proved to be extremely rewarding!

I enjoy time with family as well as attending Mass, gardening, photography, crafting and reading. I also enjoy learning more about our faith and promote causes for the Poor Souls in Purgatory and for the protection of the unborn, elderly and infirmed.
