Catherine was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago, IL. At an early age, Catherine developed a passion for teaching. In high school, she was nominated as a Golden Apple Scholar of Illinois and learned from award winning educators about the importance of positively impacting the lives of disadvantaged children and their families.

With a strong conviction for working with inner city youngsters, Catherine started her career as a third grade teacher in a struggling school in Chicago. There, she developed a heart for disadvantaged children in impoverished countries. She left to attend Harvard University. She graduated with a degree in International Education Policy from the Harvard Graduate School of Education.

Upon graduation, Catherine worked on developing education programs for child soldiers with Save the Children, UNICEF, and INEE. Knowing that she belonged in the classroom, she returned to teaching.
