Vice President (Executive Committee, Marketing Committee)
Email MeMy name is Monica Reeder. As the granddaughter of some of the very first parishioners of IHM, my roots here at IHM were cemented since before my existence. My parents, Pat and Ellen Hillary, baptized my brother Dan and me here at IHM and our entire family has never left! Shortly after being married in the church by Father Troy, my husband Bryan and I welcomed our beautiful kids into the world. Our daughter Emerson and son Declan currently attend IHM School and are loving every minute of it.
I believe that the skills and discipline instilled in me from the years I attended IHM School, inspired me to join the IHM School Board. Keeping the tradition of excellence that IHM has consistently maintained over the decades has never been more at the forefront of my priorities now that I am a mother myself.
Prior to staying at home with our kids, I used my Marketing Degree from Michigan State University to find professional success working as a Market Solutions Analyst at the Corporate Offices for Kohls Department Stores in Wisconsin. I also honed my analytical skills for Gordon Food Service here in Grand Rapids until the birth of our daughter Emmy in 2016. I hope to combine my professional training and newfound knowledge gained from parenthood, to impart worthwhile feedback to the IHM School Board and help ensure a thriving school for years to come.
