As a person of faith, my beliefs are deeply rooted in most Catholic teachings, which emphasize the importance of community, compassion, and service to others.  My faith guides me to recognize the inherent dignity and worth of every individual, and to treat others with kindness, respect, and love.  I strive to embody the principals of my belief in everyday situations through small acts of kindness, volunteering, and standing up for those who are marginalized.  I understand that being good is about cultivating a genuine attitude of love and gratitude.  Ultimately I see my faith as a personal call to action and to serve in the best ways I can.  

My philosophy of Catholic education leads me to believe in the holistic development of each student - intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, and socially.  I see education not just as the transmission of knowledge but as means to form individuals who are morally responsible and socially conscious.  I think it is very important to foster a sense of family and community within the classroom and encourage respect, empathy and collaboration among students.  I advocate for an inclusive environment where every student feels valued and supported, recognizing that we are all creations of God.  My hope is to teach and nurture well rounded individuals who are prepared to lead lives of purpose and integrity.
