I've been working at St. Rita School for 11 years.  I started as a teacher's aide, then taught pre-school for 2 years, first grade for four years, and finally I'm here in middle school teaching Math, 8th grade Religion, and 6th grade Literature. 

My husband, Jim, and I moved to Rockford almost 25 years ago.  We have 4 children, two of them at college, one at Boylan, and our last is still at St. Rita.

If I'm not at school, you can usually find me attending one of my children's extra-curricular activities.  I love watching soccer and basketball.  Our family also enjoys taking hikes and cross-country vacations.  In my spare time, I love to read.   

I am grateful God has given me the privilege to teach here at St. Rita.  The students are such a blessing.
