Credentials

Professional Experience

During my professional life I have worked in the fields of education, parish ministry and outpatient psychotherapy. In addition to my involvement in the core aspects of these vocational pursuits, I have had opportunities to participate in a variety of related activities some of which include coaching high school soccer, leading youth canoe trips and helping to create a variety of community outreach projects on the Mesabi Iron Range. My professional experiences have given me a rich appreciation for the diversity of ways in which people learn from and grow through their challenges.
