"Ecce ancilla domini, fiat mihi secundum verbum tuum." 

I am a mom of three rambuctious kiddos. I love all things CGS (Catechesis of the Good Shepherd) and I have a degree in theology from Holy Cross College.

I'm a local girl, born and raised in South Bend. I was actually confirmed here at St. Therese, Little Flower! 

I desire to approach every encounter with God's mercy and love, to receive divine appointments eagerly, and to offer my full and complete presence to whomever is currently sharing my tiny corner.

I love Jesus and I love being able to talk about Him in my day-to-day life here at the parish. I have a passion for all things Catholic! You'll hear from me if you are hoping to join the parish or getting a baby baptized.

I can't wait to meet you!

My saint heroes: 

• Most Sacred Heart of Jesus

My working geniuses are: wonder and discernment.
