Director of Youth Ministryyouthdirectorourladyrockwall.orgStephanie grew up in Southern California, where she graduated college and met her husband, Rick. They have four children, three of them grown, all of whom live in the Dallas area. In 1995, she began her career teaching in Anaheim, California. About 10 years ago, God called her to teach in a Catholic School and up until 2021, Stephanie taught 5th grade at Holy Family Catholic School, in Orange, California. Moving out to Texas has been one of the best decisions and becoming Youth Director for Our Lady of the Lake Catholic Church is a true joy. Her message to all youth comes from the teachings of Mother Teresa, “God loves me. I’m not here just to fill a place, just to be a number. He has chosen me for a purpose. I know it.” She is thrilled to journey with the youth of this parish as they discern God’s plan and have lots of fun doing it!
