What are you most looking forward to at Carroll?: As an alumna that did not have the House System while I was here, I am looking forward to learning more about it and all of the events that come along with it. I am also looking forward to learning more about certain sports that I have not been around as much and meeting more coaches who are sharing their passions for their sport here at Archbishop Carroll High School.

How do you spend your free time? Coaching cheer takes a lot of my free time, but when I am not in coach mode, I like to spend time at home with my husband and our two cats. We also like to spend time out on the lake, traveling, and being with our families.
