Highlights
Excited to begin my journey at Regis High School today as their new Director of Campus Ministry!
After a long, long discernment, i’ve made the decision to leave YDS for this new chapter of my life as the Director of Campus Ministry at Regis High School in New York City.
I came into this role in the throes of a pandemic, returning to a community that was both familiar and different all the same time. I had an idea of what I’d be getting myself into— I had no idea what I would receive. over the last three years, i’ve witnessed beautiful, heartbreaking, fulfilling things. i’ve been a part of ordinations, weddings, commemorations, remembrances, celebrations, experiments, and so much more. i’ve watched students grow into their vocations and discovering the truths we’ve seen all along. i’ve seen the goodness of God, and I have moved among the living.
i’m so grateful for the support of my family, my partner, my friends, and my colleagues who’ve been with me every step of the way since. it has been the deepest privilege to serve this community. and now, with a deep, heavy, but full and overabundant heart, the next adventure awaits. AMDG.
