I am originally from Chicago and have worked in student development administration, as well as for a Catholic nonprofit in Milwaukee. My favorite retreat house is the Jesuit Retreat Center in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, where I can keep attuned to God's desires through the silence. I live with my cat, Francis (named after St. Francis de Sales), and in my spare time, I love to read, listen to music and cook.

Hello! This is my second year with Campus Ministry at SLU and my office is in Grand Hall. My years in college were where I found myself asking hard questions of the world, my faith, and my education 鈥� and thankfully there were safe and supportive campus ministers around me to sit with me through that season. That is what I hope to be for any and every student who wants that same space and support!

Originally from southern California, I went to undergrad at California Lutheran University. I received my Master of Divinity at Duke University and went on to do chaplain work at hospitals in North Carolina and California.  Most recently, I have spent the last four years living and working at a church in New York City! I love good music, good food, addicting TV shows, yoga, dance, soccer, gardening and exploring the world around me. I am always available for a cup of coffee and conversation.

I鈥檓 delighted to be part of the Campus Ministry team! I鈥檓 originally from the suburbs of Philadelphia and spent a year in the Midwest as a Jesuit volunteer serving at the University of Detroit Mercy.

In addition to all things liturgy, I work with our Imago Dei LGBTQ+ student retreat, accompany our spring break group to El Paso, and adventure to the Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice.

Prior to SLU, I worked with low-income students at Boston College and spent a summer as a hospital chaplain. Around the city, you might run into me at farmer鈥檚 markets or attempting to become a regular at author events at independent bookstores.

I'm happy to be back at SLU as the choir director for SLU's student Mass Choir. You'll most often find me in College Church, conducting in the choir area (or these days at my computer, mixing recordings). I work with a team of incredible people from Campus Ministry and beyond to help students, alumni, and the whole SLU community to minister to each other through music and find spiritual meaning in song. I live with my husband and our two cats, and when I am not doing music things, I enjoy gardening, knitting, hiking and reading.

Hi everyone!  I'm excited to be working as the administrative assistant for Campus Ministry.  I earned my bachelor's degree in business administration with a fashion merchandising minor most recently.  I was employed as an accounting clerk for a steel broker company before I attended SLU.

Being a native of St. Louis, I'm constantly excited to check out the newest eateries and cafes the area has to offer.  I enjoy traveling, biking, cooking, dancing, yoga, live music, and spending time with friends and family when I'm not working.  I'm so excited for my journey at SLU and to grow with our community.

Happy New Year, Billikens! I look forward to utilizing my 20+ years of experience providing administrative, logistical, and operational support at academic institutions in general, and at SLU in particular, to support the mission and outreach efforts of Campus Ministry. While I am new to Campus Ministry this year, I am not new to SLU 鈥� my background has been in academic libraries, including 10+ years in public services and administrative support in Pius Library. My areas of interest include knitting, crochet, podcasts on local dining and the arts, visits to the many wonderful museums that St. Louis has to offer and cozying up on the couch with a good audiobook and my feline friends, Juno and Luna.

I'm overjoyed that this is my tenth year as a SLU campus minister. I'm a native of St. Louis. My responsibilities as campus minister include overseeing ministry to SLU's bereaved students; serving as the residence hall campus minister for Griesedieck Complex; directing retreats; mentoring students; helping with our Journey community group program; co-leading our student delegation to the annual Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice; overseeing our department's graduate intern program;  leading/accompanying a group of students every spring to visit the L'Arche community in Mobile, Alabama. I also serve as an advisor to SLU's chapter of Alpha Phi Omega, an international coed collegiate service organization committed to helping students develop into servant-minded leaders in their communities.

Prior to SLU, I worked as a hospital chaplain and as a newspaper journalist. I enjoy mentoring and accompanying college students through life, faith and solidarity. Outside of work, I enjoy cooking, hiking, spending time with dear friends, exercising, taking in concerts, road trips, volunteering, and most importantly, quality time with my beloved family.

Hi! I'm located in Spring Hall. I  facilitate our Immersion Program, coordinate our Undergraduate Internship Program, and co-lead our student delegation to the Ignatian Family Teach-In. 

Mostly, I want to connect with you! I drink way too much coffee and am always game for good food. I love the city and would be happy to tell you about it.  I am married to a wonderful wife and partner, Amy, and we have three kiddos.  I have also worked in campus ministry for the University of Cincinnati and Washington University in St. Louis.

As a family, we enjoy hiking, camping, going to all the great city parks and biking. I like cooking, role-playing games and watching college football.
