Hello, I am Terri, the bookkeeper at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton. 

I am a parishioner at St. Patrick Church in Cedar Rapids but I attend special Masses, holidays, and events at St. EAS with my parents, Fred and Elaine Garity, who are parishioners at St. EAS. 

I have a background in IT and experience as a business analyst and project manager. I also have IT security and auditing skills. I have also been a small business owner for over 20 years. 

I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration from Mount Mercy, Minors in Mathematics and Computer Science; and have my MBA from the University of Dubuque.

I have a niece and three nephews. One of my nephews is my Godson, who is a seminarian in the Winona/Rochester Diocese. 

In my spare time, I enjoy reading, spending time with friends, being outdoors, and praying with and for people. I also like skiing, biking, painting, and playing and watching volleyball. When I lived out East, I enjoyed attending musicals and plays and eating fresh seafood!
