Preschool Teacher
Mrs. Michelle Minjarez
She was born in California and has spent most of her life in Utah. An only child, she attended Catholic school throughout her childhood and continued her education at Salt Lake Community College. She is married and the proud mother of two daughters who attend Blessed Sacrament Catholic School. Raised in the Catholic faith, she remains actively involved in her home parish, St. Therese Catholic Church.
She and her family have been part of the Blessed Sacrament community for the past five years. She began her journey at the school as a daycare teacher and later served as a kindergarten aide. From a young age, she knew she wanted a career working with children, whether as a teacher or pediatrician, and feels blessed to now serve as a preschool teacher. Prior to working in education, she worked at a law firm in Salt Lake County, where she became a Paralegal and Public Notary.
In her free time, she enjoys spending quality time with her family. Together, they love both outdoor and city activities, including camping, attending plays, visiting exhibits, and ATV riding.
