I began my teaching career at Bishop Conaty Memorial High School. It was a wonderful place to teach. In 1989 Bishop Conaty and Our Lady of Loretto consolidated into the school we have today. I have enjoyed every minute of interaction with my students and yes, it is still a wonderful place to teach. I have taught in the Physical Education/Health and Fine Arts Departments.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Physical Education, a Minor in Art from the California State University, Los Angeles; a Masters in Special Education from Grand Canyon University in Arizona; and a California Single Subject BCLAD Teaching Credential in Physical Education
