Why I am a Youth Minister
|
| |
When I had to choose between being a “successful” PhD graduate student in Immunology and my work in Youth Ministry, it became a really easy choice. God’s been pushing me in this direction for years; I just had to find the courage to say “Yes!” I love being able to work full time in Youth Ministry and I REALLY don’t miss my lab mice! |

About Me
|
| |
“Recovering” Science geek. I grew up outside Philadelphia, PA and learned to love & serve God at St. Norbert Catholic Church, Paoli Presbyterian Church, and Brandeis University. I have an amazing mom and step-dad and a little brother who I look up to (and not just ‘cuz he’s taller than me!) and I’m happily married to my “nerd camp” sweetheart since 2004. |
