Mary Finnegan has been an instructor at Saint Paul College since 1993. Her favorite part of teaching is observing when the students have the "Aha" moment when new information clicks. She says she loves “to teach anatomy because the human body is an awesome machine”. Mary is a passionate advocate for students learning the business piece of the Cosmetology/Esthetics/Nails curriculum because of the success she has experienced in running her own businesses. She wants her students “to have that same positive worklife” experience.
