Alumnae Events & News

Last month, we were deeply honored to welcome esteemed guests Dean G. Marcus Cole of the University of Notre Dame Law School and Dean Martijn Cremers of the University of Notre Dame Mendoza College of Business. Deans Cole and Cremers shared their personal stories of perseverance and trust in God’s long term plans for their lives and emphasized the value of Catholic education.

We were so blessed to welcome Dr. Felicia Snead ’86 to Cathedral this week to speak to Health classes about her experience studying medicine to become a radiation oncologist! Dr. Snead’s story is an outstanding example of faith, grit, resilience, and determination. She shares that “anything hard is worth working hard for.”

Airman Sharon Villacres-Baracaldo ’18 competed against 11 other competitors from Air Force bases across the U.S. in the Salute Hospitality Epicurean Faceoff (SHEF). Her Salmon Chorizo Medley with a Creamy Chorizo Tomato Sauce wowed the judges, and she was awarded the first place prize! 

We are so delighted to celebrate Cathedral High School alumna and benefactor, Ursula Burns ’76! Ursula was featured in the Wall Street Journal in an article highlighting CEOs who "start[ed] at the bottom of a company and climb[ed] to the very top.”

Many people spend a lifetime trying to discover what they’re passionate about; Akaysha Palmer ’18 found her love for public service and passion for diplomacy as a Cathedralite! Akaysha’s story can inspire current students to set out boldly into their next adventures.
