I teach K-4 Technology and 5-8th grade Art. My lessons follow the curriculum for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, which can be viewed by clicking on the education tab on www.archdiocese-phl.org. I have a Master of Science in Business Management and was named on the 2000, 2001, and 2002 Who's Who in American Business Women listings. I was a marketing coordinator for an international horticulture company that served over 1200 growers and 3500 international vendors. I was awarded the Sam Walton Free Enterprise Fellow in 2002. From 2001-2007, I was the Dean of Academic Affairs for a for-profit, local technical college. In 2004, I was named on the Who's Who in American Educators list for my role as a professor of multi-media courses in higher education. I have been a loyal volunteer for the NFCA (National Foundation for Celiac Awareness), ABC (Association to Benefit Children), Gallery on High Street, High Street Music Company, and Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Additionally, I served in Leadership in Business seminars as a guest speaker across the country. I am now serving as a board member for Kutztown University's Alumni Association. In computer technology, I always integrate other subject areas: art, science, history, ILA, math. Students learn technical skills to apply their knowledge of technology in a global economy. Students get hands-on experiences and practice skills with desktop computers in our 29-station computer lab. I am very excited to bring formal art lessons to St. Mary's. I also hold a Master's of Education in Art and have over 20 years experience doing freelance graphic design work, as well as, commissioned portraits. I was honored at Penn College and Lycoming College as a guest speaker for my art education accomplishments. I teach for the Art Department at Montgomery County Community College and for Penn State University's Art and Humanities Department.My love is in printmaking, pencil, pen & ink, and other black and white mediums. I recently acquired a new passion working in fused glass, which has proven to be an expensive, but functional hobby. My work can be viewed at the Gallery on High in Pottstown.
