Ms. Ramirez graduated from Southern Methodist University with two bachelors degrees: Finance and Psychology. Prior to becoming a mother, she spent most of her career in corporate finance. She was a stay-at-home mom with both of her children until her youngest started at Saint Paul last year. Now she works as the Library Manager and loves being on campus with her kindergartener and seventh-grader. The youngest of six children, Ms. Ramirez was the only one of her siblings not born in the Philippines; she was born in Florida and grew up in Texas. In her free time, she loves to watch her son and daughter play basketball and baseball; she also goes vintage and estate sale shopping. She and her family travel to Hawaii almost every summer. Ms. Ramirez's personal mantra is a quote from Saint Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa): "Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies."
