I grew up as the fourth of six children living in Akron, Ohio and joined ECYD after meeting the consecrated women of Regnum Christi for the first time. I spent my high school years at Immaculate Conception Academy, a boarding school for girls run by the consecrated women in Wakefield, Rhode Island. Afterward, in August of 2010, I professed my first temporary vows of consecration and started working towards my bachelor degree in Religious and Pastoral Studies at our formation house in Greenville, Rhode Island. Four years later, I renewed my temporary vows and was assigned to join the community of consecrated women in Cincinnati doing youth pastoral work. Since then, I have helped with various Challenge clubs, the Pure Fashion program, and worked in campus ministry at Royalmont Academy.
