As a teacher, parish director, assistant principal, college instructor, and consultant, I found a need to prepare beautiful Catholic materials for teaching the faith. I founded the Catholic Education Center (.com) to help teachers learn through online courses and prepare teaching resources to use in the classroom.
Catholic teaching should witness the love of Christ and reflect the goodness and beauty of the Faith. I believe in forming the whole person, using the senses, challenging for growth, and incorporating the faith into daily life.
I have written curriculum materials for Ignatius Press (Faith and Life Series) and homeschooling. My greatest honor, though, is seeing the joy on the faces of my students as they come to understand God's love for them.

As Director of the Catholic Education Center, LLC, I offer courses for teachers to learn and share the faith. I also serve as a consultant for dioceses, writing policies, guidelines, and standards of learning. Preparing teaching resources is what I do for fun!
