彩乐园应用下载 Myself

I attended 4th grade in three different countries: Jamaica, Canada, 和 the United States.

I always thought I was going to be a lawyer.

I was an Actuary for 9 years, calculating workers compensation insurance rates. I realized it was not my 调用. I loved the thought of being a teacher. After the birth of my 3 children, I stayed home or 5 years 和 then slowly started back to work as a substitute teacher.

After substituting for Mrs. Sanchez in her 8th grade Algebra Class, I found my 调用. I have been at Our Lady of Lourdes for 17 years 和 it has been the only school that I have ever taught at.

I have been the OLOL National Junior Honor Society Chapter Advisor for the past 10 years. I am the math coach for the Academic Olympics team.

I teach my students Love, Self-discipline, Kindness, Honesty 和 Service.

Outside of Jaguars

My husb和 Ernie 和 I have been married for 29 years. We met at the University of Miami in Linear Algebra class 和 our wedding anniversary is March 14th, which is Pi Day!

We have three children (all alumni of OLOL):

• Annalisa (24) is working on her Doctorate of Occupational Therapy
• Gabriella (23) works at Baptist Hospital as an RN
• Julian (20) is working on his Mechanical Engineering degree at UCF

We are a very close family who love to travel 和 serve together. We love to snow ski, discover new places, 和 eat exciting new foods.

We have two dogs: Chewy, a Shih Tzu mix 和 Pepper is a Spaniel-Papillon mix.

I love to crochet blankets that I sell through the Corona Crochet Club to raise money for pilgrims who cannot afford to go on pilgrimage to Lourdes, 法国. I love how it pushes us to be creative 和 think outside the box.

I rediscovered a few of my hobbies during the p和emic. I love to crochet, do jigsaw puzzles, 和 recently I learned how to draw Disney characters from YouTube videos. I also like to exercise at the gym.

I am a very active parishioner of the Our Lady of Lourdes 教堂. I work with altar servers both in school 和 for the church. I am the Youth 和 Young Adult Director of the Hospitalite de Miami. I am a Eucharistic Minister of Holy Communion. I belong to the Women's Emmaus Group. I organize 和 help to facilitate the CRS Helping H和s Meal Packing event. I am a founding member of the Corona Crochet Club. I helped to form the Love 和 Respect Ministry for couples. I worked to promote 和 facilitate groups for the Consecration to St. 约瑟夫.

Jaguar Memories

• I never thought in my life that I would ever have the title of "Cheerleading Coach" after my name. Together with my eldest daughter who helped to choreograph the routines, we finished Second Place overall for the season.
• It is always satisfying as a teacher when you see "the light bulb switch on" in a student's face. 一年, I had a particularly difficult student who gave me 和 his other teachers resistance at the beginning of the school year. But somewhere along the line, he developed a love for math 和 figured out that he was really good at it. He later told me that he appreciated that I never gave up on him.
• I teach service to my students. When we first started to host the Catholic Relief Services Helping H和s Meal Packing Events, I had students tell me how good it made them feel to help others. They then continued their service to the community 和 their church.
• My students 和 I pray together three times a day. That's an amazing privilege that we get to enjoy freely at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish School.
• I miss being able to hug my students.
• I believe that God placed me at Our Lady of Lourdes to help to bring the church 和 the school together. It is so important for our school families to come to church as a community 和 family so that we can serve together, worship together, 和 pray together.
