What’s your role in the admissions office?

As the assistant director of admissions, I assist prospective candidates, current families and colleagues with anything regarding the admissions process.

What made you want to work at FSHA?

FSHA is truly a welcoming community.

What most excites you about your work here on the Hill?

In my opinion, the most exciting part of my job is working the Admissions events and meeting new families.

What are the two most important things prospective students should know about FSHA?

The most important thing prospective students should know about FSHA is that you never really leave the Hill even after graduating. Lifelong bonds and a true sense of sisterhood really epitomize what the heart of Flintridge Sacred Heart Academy represents.

What is FSHA’s best kept secret?

There's so much wildlife here! From the graceful deer to the sun-bathing lizards, there has not been a day since I started working here that I have not seen some sort of creature on campus.

What’s your favorite spot on campus?

My favorite spot on campus overlooks the Rose Bowl and Pasadena. What a fantastic view!

What do you love about the all-girls school environment at FSHA?

What I love about the all-girls learning environment is that the focus can truly be on academics, empowerment, carefree fun, individuality and collaborative growth. FSHA challenges and nurtures the holistic development of young women.

What are you surprisingly good at?

I am a trained makeup artist and have helped my sisters and friends with their makeup predicaments for years.

Where can we find you when you’re not working?

When I am not working, you can always find me with my big family, my wonderful husband Chris and our goofy dog. Going to concerts, thrift store shopping or a family dinner at my parent’s house are some of my favorite activities.

Who has made the biggest impact on your life?

My parents have made the biggest impact on my life by far. Their virtuousness, compassion, purity and unwavering love guide my siblings and me through our lives. They are a constant source of stability and selflessness for anyone who knows them. I truly can’t say enough about how important family is.
