Summary of Experience
I graduated from college planning to go into the corporate world as an engineer, but God had other plans! I felt a calling to be a teacher and started teaching at the all-boys Salesian High School in New Rochelle, NY. This is where I first encountered the Salesian charism. Since coming to teach at MHC Academy, I have come to love even more the Salesian spirituality and way of teaching. I am a Physics teacher, which allows me the chance to ignite my students' curiosity of the world around them and to explore with them how their everyday lives are impacted by the various concepts of Physics. I also enjoy teaching math and STREAM, where the students learn tools that will help them thrive in their future endeavors. I find great joy in being a moderator for the Faithful Creations Club and the Robotics/Coding Club, as well as being a Junior class moderator. 

Personal Message
The Academy is a truly special place, where all the students and educators work together as a spiritual family to grow into the people that God has created us to be! With Mary Help of Christians as our loyal companion and guide, let us keep allowing Christ to work in us, with us, and through us so that as future citizens of Heaven we may bring God's light and love to all those around us.
