I have been at Aquinas for 10 years now, and have had the opportunity to be involved in quite a few different roles. First and foremost I am a teacher of wonderful young women and men who are continuing their journeys toward independence. I am honored to be a small part of that fantastic journey.

You can usually find me in Room 203 during the day, or by phone at x3052 or email at jshook@aquinasinstitute.com. I welcome the chance to hear from you.

Here are a few of the activities that keep me busy throughout the year!
