I am a native Jersey girl, born and raised in East Brunswick. I attended Corpus Christi Elementary School, East Brunswick High School, and took some courses at Middlesex County College, but then elected to go out into the working world. I worked for several years, met and married my husband, and we moved to Hillsborough and started a family. I stayed home for 12 years, raising our sons.
God has blessed my husband and I with two wonderful sons. My oldest, Ryan, is a graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology, with a degree in Information Technology. He lives in Baltimore and is the Chief Technology Officer for the Baltimore Museum of Art. My younger son, Matt, graduated from Fordham University with a Masters degree in Business, with a concentration in Economics and Finance. While at Fordham, he played Defensive back for the Rams football team, who won the Patriot League Championship in Matt's Junior year! Matt is employed by Guy Carpenter & Company LLC as an Assistant Vice-President. He is married with a 4 month old son - my first grandchild, who is the most adorable baby ever! :-)
I am a Eucharistic Minister, love Eucharistic Adoration, and was a catechist for 12 years, getting my Certification as a Master Catechist in the Diocese of Metuchen from Felician College. I also served on my parish's Pastoral Council, was active in Renew, and taught Adult Education. I love football, am an avid reader, but also love watching "vintage" TV shows, being by the ocean, and SNOW!
I always had a great love of my Catholic faith and was always active in ministry, so when I decided to go back into the workforce, working at The Catholic Center seemed like a perfect fit for me! It’s hard for me to believe I'm beginning my 19th year (!) at the Center and really love working here. We have the best staff and students anywhere! I am continually impressed with the caliber of students who grace us with their presence, their ministry, their affection, and their wonderful faith. I love when current students and alums stop by my office to say hello! I’ve seen a lot of changes in the ministry and can honestly say it is truly guided by the Holy Spirit as it continues to not only grow but flourish - as do our students in their faith life. I can honestly say, The future of the Catholic Church is in good hands!
