Mike Kelly '87

<br />

I'm in my 8th year of teaching at my alma mater...and I couldn't be happier to be here.   The journey that has brought me back to Chaminade Julienne has been a very exciting one that has taken me to Cincinnati, Philadelphia, PA, Albany, NY, Riyadh, Saudia Arabia, Ankarra, Turkey and back to Dayton, Ohio once again.  I've loved every bit of the journey and continue to be happy to be part of the school that helped shape who I am.  I enjoy teaching and believe that CJ's mission within the Dayton community  is most important.  The diverse student body helps to make CJ unique and I like to stress that diversity and pull from the many different backgrounds of our students in my teaching.
