Why did you say "yes" to serving children in Catholic schools through ACE?
I said yes because I've known the impact of good teachers and faithful communities. I'm hoping to pay it forward and serve as a mentor to my students as they develop in the people God is calling them to be. I'm especially excited to help them wrestle with big ideas in literature and find their voices in writing.

Why did you say "yes" to serving children in Catholic schools through ACE?
My life has been shaped by incredible teachers in Catholic schools, and I want to give back to the mission of Catholic education while serving my students and their families. In Catholic schools, our curricular subjects are important, but God is at the center of everything we do, creating the perfect environment to form heart, mind, and soul.
