Professional Background
I have 10 years teaching experience for FCPS as a substitute teacher. I have taught in the Diocese of Arlington for 8 years. This is my 5th year as a Kindergarten teacher at OLGC. I taught Pre-K for one year at OLGC. I was a Pre-K assistant teacher for two years at St. Andrew the Apostle in Clifton, VA.
Faith in Action
I believe that the best example I can show my students is by truly living my faith when teaching. I strive to be the best person I can be everyday and want that to reflect on my students. I think about what I am doing for God and does it reflect in my teaching.
