How did Gloucester Catholic help you prepare for success beyond high school?

Gloucester Catholic helped me realize that I was the most important factor determining my success. I can be my own biggest supporter and motivator in order to get where I want to be in life.

What advice would you give to current GCHS students?

Be kind to yourself. You can either be your biggest obstacle or your biggest supporter. Give yourself room to make mistakes and learn from them.

Was there a particular faculty/staff member who had an impact on you?

Doc Simmons – He is the reason I thought becoming a doctor one day was even a possibility!
