Teacher of Social Studies

Teacher of English as a Second Language

 

Before coming to MHC Academy, I taught English as a Second Language at Fairleigh Dickinson University's Puerta al Futuro program. Since joining the faculty at MHCA in 2013, I have taught Advanced Placement U.S. History, Sociology, Linguistics, U.S. History II, Civics, and World History. Since 2022, I have been the Assistant Coach of the Lacrosse team. I love it!

 

As a graduate of our brother school Don Bosco Prep, I am very excited to be surrounded by the same Salesian spirit at Mary Help of Christians Academy! In all of my classes, my overarching goal is to help students develop critical thinking skills, to teach civic virtue, and to prepare our young women to be self-confident and independent thinkers, role models for the next generation, and informed citizens who will take an active role in shaping the future of our society. As a coach, I love to see our athletes work hard, improve, succeed, bond with their teammates, win, and have fun!
