How do you hope to grow in your experience as an ACE Teacher?  

I hope to grow against the odds. I hope to be truly challenged. I hope to look at myself in the mirror on the hardest weeks and find something positive to say, a reason to smile. I hope to, in the face of the most challenging days, find the time to uplift my students and community members. This, would be the growth I hope to see.

Why did you say "yes" to serving as a Catholic school educator through ACE Teaching Fellows? 

Growing up in a big Catholic family, I felt called to lead and serve the youth. I have always dreamed of being a teacher, and I knew ACE would allow me to bring my faith into the classroom while challenging and deepening it through my students. I am honored to be a part of this program which shows me glimpses of Christ in all I do through and with ACE.
