Bio

Why are you passionate about your subjects?

I am passionate about music and French because they open up new means of communication for our students. Learning another language is not just another class, but a means to understanding others’ cultures and how they see the world. It is very exciting to observe students as their vision of the world expands and they reevaluate their own culture in light of their new knowledge.

What are the benefits of an all girls education?
I see how comfortable my students are in an all girls environment. I see them taking risks in the classroom which I know would be much harder in a coed environment.

What’s a book that has influenced you?

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. I found Jane to embody self-knowledge, empathy, and critical thinking, and at the same time someone with whom I could identify.

Who is someone past or present you would love to have dinner with and why?
Perhaps Joan of Arc. I read her biography by Mark Twain and it fascinated yet perplexed me. Her story is unique - plus, she is French.

What are some of your passions, hobbies or skills outside the classroom?
I like to sing, run, knit, fish and travel. In addition to French, I speak Spanish and some Italian, and I would love to learn German or Arabic - I love all languages.

What parents are saying

"My daughter joined Montrose as a 9th grader, and I have never seen her happier or more excited about school. Even during the cold, dark days of winter, she never wants to miss a single day. We are not a Catholic family, yet she feels comfortable and at home at Montrose."
