My family: I’m thankful to be living near my parents and four of my seven siblings in Jax. Life has been blessed by my pup, Henry, and I have found wonderful friendships and community that have been like family.
My work: Recently, I accepted a position as the Director of Youth Ministry for high school and middle school students.
Brother I know best: Br. Clinton was present throughout my time at FSU’s Catholic Student Union and on an international mission trip to Haiti. Over time I’ve also gotten to know Br. Rahl well.
Favorite Brotherhood memory: Too many to narrow down, but I believe a cherished moment would be running into Br. Rahl in my hometown at daily Mass and being able to catch up with him and other friends over breakfast.
How the Brotherhood shaped my life: The Brothers have helped bring healing to my life where I didn’t realize I was broken. Their investment into the community and individuals as well helped me to see father figures that sincerely wanted our best interest. Their continual example of self-giving and sacrifice motivates and inspires others. They have created a lasting impact on my life.
Favorite saint: Saint Teresa of Calcutta
Favorite ways to pray: Being the extrovert I am I’ve found great peace and healing through silent mediation and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.
