Philosophy of Education
An ideal education considers all aspects of the individual: academic/intellectual, social, spiritual, and physical. While we all possess varying gifts, talents, and strengths, when we work together, we are much more capable of doing good in society. It is my goal, as an English teacher,  to make students aware of their unique gifts and to  assist them in presenting their thoughts (orally and written) in a way that demonstrates their intelligence and displays their credibility.

Why do you enjoy working at St. Martha Catholic School?
I can live my faith here. I can have an impact on children, encouraging them to meet their academic (as well as spiritual) potentials.
