positions on the NCCS Board for five years. I have been a
Cleveland Christ Child Society member for 15 years and held
Cleveland CCS Board positions for 12 of those 15 years. At
Cleveland CCS I worked as the fund raising chair and on the
strategic planning committee and served as President of the
Chapter for the 2002-2004 term.
In addition to my service to Christ Child Society, I am
involved in the Notre Dame Cathedral Latin Development Board
and my local parish St. Joan of Arc Development Board.
I have three grown daughters and eight grandchildren. My
husband Jeff, an architect, and I have been married for 38
