She was a native Washingtonian and a graduate of Holy Cross Academy. She was a 1965 graduate of Dunbarton College and received in 1970 a master's degree in guidance and counseling from Catholic University, where she also did postgraduate work in school psychology.
She spent her early career teaching at Catholic schools in the Washington area as well as in New York and North Carolina.
After retiring, she volunteered with the Children's Defense Fund and Head Start. She spent the past several years working at Holy Cross Hospital in patient reception and teaching employees English as a second language. She lived in Silver Spring.
She leaves no immediate survivors.
