Baltimore
Life in the City
Baltimore is a city full of character, creativity, and heart! Here, historic charm blends seamlessly with a thriving arts and culture scene. In vibrant neighborhoods like Hampden and Fells Point, cobblestone streets, colorful murals, and cozy cafés showcase the city's unique flair. The Inner Harbor offers waterfront views and some of the best seafood around. Baltimore thrives on its community spirit and deep-rooted pride. With four distinct seasons, lively festivals, and a passionate sports scene (go Ravens), there’s always something to experience. Whether you're drawn to its history, waterfront, or arts scene, Baltimore is the place for you!

Why did you say "yes" to serving as a Catholic school educator through ACE Teaching Fellows?
My yes is a testament that, "True service reflects God’s love.” I would like to embody God's love as a Catholic school educator through ACE. I have felt the joy and love from Catholic school educators in my experience of Catholic School education. I hope to in return give this same love for my students and see God's love reflected in each of them through everyday encountering.
