Education: Master’s Degree in Education Administration, Indiana University; Bachelor’s in English Education, Indiana University

Bio: I’ve worked at Scecina in some capacity since the spring of 1990. I was the boys varsity soccer coach for close to 20 years, an English teacher, athletic director, vice principal and principal. I’m married to Patty Dugan Hegarty and we are the proud parents of two Scecina graduates, Joseph ‘15 and Eamon ‘16. We also have been host parents for 12 international students who have or are attending Scecina. One of my main responsibilities now is to recruit International students to come to Scecina.

Hello, my name is Matthew Leming. I am a born and raised Eastsider who went to Holy Spirit and Our Lady of Lourdes. I graduated from Scecina in 2018, and I have a long line of family that attended Scecina. My older brother, Aaron, my mother, Nancy, and many other family members attended Scecina. After graduation, I attended Franklin College and studied history. Upon graduation, I spent some time working in the banking industry as a teller. While that time was valuable in many ways, I felt more of me wanted to give back, which is where Scecina came in. Scecina is a great experience and opportunity to allow me to give back to my community. I enjoy travel, hiking, fitness, and spending quality time with friends and family in my free time.

I am very excited to be a part of the Scecina community and will do what I can to give that little extra.

Education: Bachelor of Arts, Psychology, Indiana University

Bio: I was born and lived in Mexico until the age of 8. My family then moved to the United States, and I have called Indy’s southside home ever since! I attended IU-Bloomington, where I studied psychology. Upon graduation I became an ABA Therapist and really enjoyed working with children with autism. In 2013 I began my career with recruitment and admissions at Providence Cristo Rey High School. After four years, I started my position at Scecina with the 2017-2018 school year. I also organize Summer Camps and the Student Ambassador program. I am now a proud Eastsider along with my dog, Jax. In my free time I enjoy travel, all things food, and quality time with family and friends.

Education: Bachelor of Arts, Journalism, Kent State University

Bio: I worked in newspaper journalism for most of my career. After completing a postgraduate Pulliam Fellowship with the now-defunct Indianapolis News, I went to The Anchorage Times in Alaska. I returned to Indianapolis, where I settled. In 2015, I moved from The Indianapolis Star to Scecina. I love Scecina’s diverse population of students. My husband, Pat, is an attorney and a magistrate in Marion County Superior Courts. We attend Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church and have three children, Joe, Brigid, and Sean, a 2016 Scecina graduate who is studying accounting at the Kelley School of Business at IUPUI. Outside Scecina, I enjoy family time, reading, playing music, the outdoors, playing Jeopardy on Alexa, and cooking on weekends. We have one black cat, Bandit and an Australian mix, Ivy.
