Meet the Teacher

Hello and welcome back!  I'm looking forward to another year at St. Dorothy's and getting to know all of my new students, as well as, working together with you, their parents, to have a fun, exciting academic year.
A little bit about myself....... I grew up in Drexel Hill and attended St. Andrew and Archbishop Prendergast HS.  Cabrini is where I attended college and graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education.  I taught at my alma mater, St. Andrew, right out of college. While there, I taught grades K, 2, 4, and 7.  It was also enjoyable to work with the upper school students when I coached CYO cheerleading and ran the school musicals and talent shows. After teaching there for 11 years, my husband and I decided it would be beneficial to focus on raising our  infant twins (Anna & Kara) and 2 year old son (Paul). During this time, I taught dance part time, catered and subbed at St. Andrew.  Last year, I decided to return to teaching because I really missed it and my children were beginning 6th and 8th grade.  I can't forget to mention our 4 month old puppy, Eloise, and 3 yr. old cat, Chloe.  And here we are today!

Some interests....I love, love, love the beach!  Off season is my favorite time there. My downfalls are chocolate and coffee.  I enjoy cooking, dancing, spending time with friends and family, and my job teaching:)

May God bless this school year and may all of us find strength, compassion, love and respect in each other and for one another.
