Welcome.

I'm a Ph.D. educator who specializes in spiritual development and pluralistic process theology. For over twenty-five years, I have been studying spirituality and empowering people in their personal growth. 

Throughout my life, I pursued an extensive path of religious and spiritual study both personally and professionally. As part of this journey, I earned a Ph.D. in Comparative Religious Studies and a Master's Degree in Religious Education from the Claremont School of Theology. In both of these settings, I gained a tremendous appreciation for the diverse ways in which people find spiritual solace and express their faith.

As an educator and leader, I blend academic expertise with pragmatic insight to create learning experiences that are engaging and inspirational. Drawing on all of my experience, I help people forge a deeper relationship with their spirituality and each other. Inspiring people to cultivate greater connection and compassion is at the core of my work. ​​​​​​​​

Of course, the entire story is much more involved. Even as a small child, I was the kid who wanted to know "why." My quest for understanding never faded, and I have been on this vocational trajectory since high school.​​
