Brief Bio

My photo
Quezon City, Metro-Manila, Philippines
I am a runner, pastor, sociologist, teacher, and missionary. After living in Chicago for 6 years, I discerned a call to go to Manila, Philippines to live and work among the urban poor, and combine my passions for ministry, running, and the oppressed. After serving in the Philippines in 2012 and 2013, I returned to the United States for two years to finish my dissertation, get ordained, spend time with my family, and work at a neighborhood center in Kansas City. Since then, I have been working in the Philippines with Companion With the Poor as a missionary. Each day I look forward to how God will direct my steps as I live into His work of restoring a broken world.

A Picture A Day [January] - Tatalon and Manila

[So I stole this idea from my friends Katie and Mandy back in Chicago (thanks girls), but I think it will be a good way to help you see Manila during my time here!]


1/20/12 - Quezon Avenue - One of the main roads that goes past my community and through Quezon City here in Metro Manila.  Took this picture from a walkway over the road on my first day in Manila!

Kenya Pictures 2007, Part 2


Tuesday, July 25th: Trip to Lake Nakuru




Kenya Pictures 2007, Part 1


These are some pictures from our trip so far. Because picture taking is limited in the slums and homes for street children, I must get them from those who took them, so they will be up sometime later when I get a chance. I hope you enjoy these now though.

This is a mural from the Kenya Youth For Christ organization building, an organization that in partnership with World Vision has sent groups of 18-24 year olds into over 90 high schools in Kenya to talk about abstinence and character development in order to prevent HIV and unplanned pregnancy. It was a great experience.
