I began my career at Holy Redeemer in 2005 and have the wonderful opportunity to teach religion to the 4th through 8th grades. I am also the Testing Coordinator, Staff Retreat Coordinator, a Eucharistic Minister and part of the Confirmation Team. In May of 2017, I received the Archdiocese of Washington’s Golden Apple Teacher of the Year Award. I graduated from the University of Maryland with a BA degree and currently hold a Teaching Certification in Secondary Education. I received my Catechist certification from the Archdiocese of Washington in 2009. My husband, Lee, and I have been married since 1987. Both of our children attended Holy Redeemer School from Kindergarten through 8th grade and are now young adults. We have been parishioners at Holy Redeemer since 1990.
