A Letter from our Principal

Hello OLQA Family!

I am truly blessed and humbled to be the Principal for the 2024/2025 school year.

I received my doctorate in Interdisciplinary Leadership from Creighton University, a Jesuit school. One of the main focuses was on Jesuit leadership, which includes several aspects, but the ones that stuck with me most are that we lead with greater love than fear and that leaders imagine an inspiring future and strive to shape it rather than passively watching the future behind them. Not only have these helped me understand the importance of love and compassion in everything we do, but to use prayer, creativity, and courage to do what others feel is impossible. 

 

A little about me, I’ve been married for nineteen years, I have two girls, one almost done with high school and another entering college. I spent the past two years volunteering in my parish Confirmation program delivering weekly chats to the confirmation teens. I love boxing both as a sport and a workout, and I enjoy watching college basketball and especially rooting for my Alma Mater, Creighton University, Go Jays!

 

I care deeply about Our Lady and want what is best for our students, teachers, staff, and parents. I truly believe that God places us where we are most needed, and I look forward to the work that God has in store for us and the future that we will shape together.
