I am grateful for the opportunity to serve the greater Charleston community as the Founding President and CEO of Cristo Rey Charleston High School (CRCHS).Â
As a graduate of Berkeley County School District, who began her working career at McDonald's in Moncks Corner, I am honored to return "home" and use my talents to help guide the next generation of leaders in our region.
