I am the 8th of 9 children, and I grew up on a farm just south of Eudora - the same farm my mother was raised on. The same work I loathed growing up are some of my favorite ways to spend my time now. I spent my freshman year at K-State before transferring to seminary at Kenrick-Glennon in St. Louis. I completed 8 years of formation, and I was ordained by Archbishop Joseph Naumann on May 23, 2020. I have served as Parochial Vicar at Holy Cross (2020-2022) and Good Shepherd (2022-2025), and I am privelaged to have served 5 years as chaplain of Bishop Miege High School.
I'm thrilled to be in Olpe now and to pastor this awesome community!
