A Little About Me: My husband Steve and I have been married for 28 years and have three grown boys. I taught 2nd grade before deciding to spend some time at home with my children when they were young. My most recent position was at Our Lady of Sorrows as the Director of Religious Education. While there, I completed my graduate degree at Mount Saint Mary’s Seminary and School of Theology.

Bio: As a member of the Parish Support Team, my job is to accompany parish leaders and offer them formation and support so that they can grow in their identity as missionary disciples and be catalysts for renewal in their parishes. I also develop content for our blog and for the Catholic Telegraph, and give talks at retreats, conferences, workshops, and in-service days throughout the Archdiocese. What I love about my work is that I am encouraged to use the gifts God gave me, I get to have a real impact in people’s lives, and I get to work alongside people who value and support me.

A Little About Me: I’m from Owensboro, Kentucky (Go Cats!). I have a twin brother who is a parish priest in the Archdiocese of Louisville, KY. I met my wife, who’s from Maine, on a website for fans of Catholic Hip Hop. I like my food as spicy as you can possibly make it.

Favorite Saint: St. Michael the Archangel
