Teaching at Saint Joseph's Since: 2021

Why Saint Joseph's?
St. Joseph’s has a great community atmosphere and there is a strong rapport between staff and students. I also love that we can take a holistic approach to our academic pursuits, particularly emphasizing the complementary nature of faith and reason.  The more I study God’s creation through the natural sciences, the more I come to an appreciation of His majesty and goodness. I hope to convey that same sense of wonder to students.
