Meet the Admission Staff

Caroline enjoys spending time with her schnauzer-terrier mix Brock, cooking, arranging flowers and traveling back to her home state, Maryland.  Her favorite thing about Parish is observing the joy Parish students have when arriving on campus for school.

Julie enjoys spending time with her three daughters—Hannah, Kora, and Estella—who are all students at Parish, and her husband, Brad, who teaches in the Upper School at Parish. Her favorite thing about Parish is the sense of belonging that each member of her family feels when they are at school.

A Dallas native, Elisa enjoys reading and spending time with her family, including spending as much time with her mom and dad as possible. Her favorite thing about Parish is the community and the wonderful relationships that have been built over the years with the students and families.
