I graduated from Franciscan University of Steubenville with a Bachelor’s of Science in Theology and Mathematics. I am completing my Master’s in Theology at Franciscan as well. The classical track will be a wonderful addition to the mission of Seton LaSalle since it enables us to return to the roots of our society. Through a wholesome study of the great thinkers throughout human history, our students will be well-formed in mind and soul, ready to face the challenges of modern life.

I attended the University of Pittsburgh and earned a degree in Liberal Studies. I became more interested in the Catholic faith through the dynamic Newman Center at the Pittsburgh Oratory while attending Pitt. This led me to Franciscan University of Steubenville where I earned a Master’s Degree in Theology and Christian Ministry. I love the intersection of faith and reason. Our classical curriculum will give the students numerous opportunities to enter into the important questions which humanity has grappled with for ages, both through faith and reason.

I have a BA in Theology from the University of St. Thomas in Houston with minors in history and philosophy and an MA in Theology from Franciscan University of Steubenville. I am excited for our classical track, because it will allow us to dive deeply into and have amazing discussions about the Great Books that have built Western Civilization.

I am a graduate of Seton LaSalle Catholic High School, and earned a degree in Secondary Social Studies Education at Duquesne University. In my career at Seton LaSalle, I have taught all levels and nearly all the courses in the curriculum. I look forward to being a part of an outstanding classical Catholic program.

I have a B.S. in Secondary Education from Duquesne University with certifications in Latin and English. With my focus on the classics and literature, I am very excited to engage students in a pursuit of truth, beauty, and goodness in these realms within our Catholic classical curriculum!
