What do you think is the value of a Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà education?
I love helping families achieve a world-class education. It's such a transformative time in a person's life. Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà education, specifically, understands that education is about more than getting a job or having a great career: it's about addressing the desires and dreams of the entire person. What distinguishes us is that we acknowledge who we are as people and where we're ultimately going in life.
What do you do in your free time?
I have a four-year-old, so most of my free time is spent playing with him but I love to ride bikes and I enjoy the outdoors.
Favorite Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà U fun fact?
There were quite a few saints who were educated here. I am a big fan of Fulton Sheen. He was educated here and taught here at Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà U. Sister Thea Bowman is on her way to becoming a saint and I think that's really cool.
