My name is Thomas (T.J.) Belsterling, and I most recently graduated from the University of Dayton with majors in Secondary Education, Religious Studies, and English Language Arts. I have been a parishioner of St. Gregory Parish in Zelienople my whole life, and I attended Quigley Catholic High School in Baden, Pennsylvania. I have taught students from middle school to college level ranging from English to faith formation/preparation. I have professional associations with the National Speech and Debate League, Mock Trial/ PA BAR Association, the National Council for Teachers of English, and the Arch-Diocese of Cincinnati.
