Bio:
I have worked in parish and school ministry for over 25 years. I am currently employed at St. Paul Parish School as the Religion Specialist. I earned an M.A. from the University of Washington, and I completed all coursework for a second Master's Degree from Seattle University in Ministry. I possess extensive knowledge of Sacred Scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the Sacraments. I have lead retreats and workshops on a wide variety of topics for the Archdiocese of Portland in Oregon, for Women's Groups, for Parish events including adult, inter-generational, and youth. My strengths include a talent for explaining and applying Doctrine and Scripture. I love using stories from my life and from the lives of the saints to invite people to think and reflect. I am faithfully and joyfully Catholic, and I want to inspire others to know, prioritize and embrace their faith. I work hard to create beautiful handouts and PowerPoint presentations.
