About

Experienced Catholic High School Teacher with a demonstrated mastery of pedagogical skills. I have professional experience working at a Jesuit two-year college and a Catholic High School in Student Life, Student Involvement, Programming, Campus Ministry, Alumni and Fundraising Events, Marketing, Networking, Communications, Enrollment Management and overall Academic Performance. I have a passion for teaching and learning which led me to work in various capacities in Catholic Education. It is my goal to ensure that each student I come in contact with is exposed to a holistic educational development. Therefore, my job is to make campus life one that is enriching, exciting and inclusive. My hope is to become a Catholic High School President/Principal in the near future!

I recently got accepted into a nationally recognized teacher service preparation program Partners in Los Angeles Catholic Education (PLACE) Corps at Loyola Marymount University. The program is centered around the tenets of social justice and equal access to top-tier values based education for all students. The program PLACEs its members to serve primarily in under-resourced and under-represented schools in Southern California. I am committed to being a social justice advocate for the most vulnerable and under-represented communities.
