I have been an educator for the past ten years. I began my career at the University of New Hampshire as a history instructor. Subsequently, I taught at several other colleges including Massasoit Community College and Becker College. In 2015, I transitioned to teaching in secondary education. I taught in the Social Studies department at Coyle and Cassidy for three years before becoming the Department Chair in the Spring of 2018. As a department chair, I was responsible for overseeing the curriculum for grades 5-12, supervising teachers within the department, and serving on the leadership board. I hold a BA with Honors and a Master’s Degree in History from Binghamton University. I also attended Bridgewater State University and completed a Post-Baccalaureate program to become licensed to teach Social Studies in grades 5-12 in the state of Massachusetts. My family are active members of Annunciation of the Lord parish in Taunton.

“The best thing about teaching in a Catholic middle school is the opportunity to make a difference in the life of a child, and to nurture each student’s God-given talents. Each day is another chance to have a positive impact on a child. What an awesome vocation!”
