I have earned undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate degrees in Biblical studies and organizational leadership, arts management and leadership, theology, and interdisciplinary studies. I have earned a PhD, DMin, and a ThD.
I currently serve full-time in higher education administration. I previously served as Assistant Professor and Director of Contextualized Learning for a seminary located in the Midwest.
