ALUMNI PROFILES

Graduation Year: 2008

Currently reside: Atlanta, Georgia

Favorite class while at Brebeuf Jesuit? Painting in Mr. Cancilla’s class was my absolute favorite!

Favorite teacher/coach? Mrs. Mary Ann Wallace, known affectionately as Maw.

What was inspiring about him/her?

Maw was an incredible mentor to me during my time at Brebeuf. During my time as a Kairos leader, she believed in me and helped me courageously step out of my comfort zone. I’m grateful to have learned so much from her.

What are you doing now?

Today, I am a published author, licensed clinical social worker, and the owner of The Essence of Healing LLC and Gmichelle Wellness. The focus of my work is to offer busy, caring, and exhausted people the opportunity to recover from burnout and make self-care a practical part of their lives. Outside of work, I’m a mom to the coolest two-year-old ever, I love taking foodie adventures and absolutely adore trips to our local bookstores. :)

How did Brebeuf Jesuit help shape you into the person you are today?

Brebeuf Jesuit inspired and truly taught me what it means to be a woman in service of others. Brebeuf was a special space for me to learn, grow and discover what I needed to do to make a difference and help the communities that I am a part of and need care. I’m a proud alumnus and feel honored to call myself a Brave!

Words of wisdom or advice to our current students.

Make the most of your experience at Brebeuf by stepping outside of your own comfort zone. Try out for that team, join that club, or go on that retreat. With the many amazing offerings that Brebeuf provides, you may discover something special about yourself by trying something you’ve never done before.

BREBEUF BRIEFINGS

Jay Hmurovich Wins Gold in First Decathlon Competition

Our next Briefing takes us to the track where Jay Hmurovich, current Brebeuf junior, earned the gold medal for the decathlon at Nationals for USATF (USA Track and Field) held in Geneva, OH this past summer.

After getting involved with USATF in middle school, he’s grown in both skill and number of events he participates in. Last year, he got to the point of participating in so many different events for Brebeuf’s track and field team that his coach, Mr. Brian Hamlett, encouraged him to try a decathlon, noting Jay’s athleticism and skill at track and field events, in general.
