Director of Campus Ministry; Christian Leadership Teacher; Sophomore Boys Journey Retreat Moderator
I began my time at Marist in 1988 as a Theology teacher after working for seven years in Catholic Parish Youth & Young Adult Ministry. After one year teaching, I took on the role of Director of Campus Ministry in addition to teaching a set of theology classes. Eventually, I added a special theology course called Christian Leadership, which is now the only class I teach. The balance of my time is spent participating in the great work of Campus Ministry with a team of adults and students.
After 23 years in Catholic education, I have come to greatly appreciate the value that it is to its families, its community and its staff. Students at Marist are a gift to this community, and their great enthusiasm, passion, and energy contribute enormously to their growth into fine young men and women of faith and character.
Education:
I earned a B.A. in Religious Studies at the University of Oregon, followed by an M.A. in Theology from the University of Portland. I am currently working toward an Ed.D. in Catholic Educational Leadership at the University of San Francisco.
