I’m an ENFJ and so, of course, I love to teach and I love to tell stories.

I earned a BA in International Studies from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I also hold a Master of Divinity from Union Theological Seminary where I studied under James Cone, Cornel West, and many other influencers in the fields of theology, social justice, and world religions. Currently, I’m writing my dissertation (working title: Sabbath as Transformative Practice) toward the completion of a Doctor of Ministry at Boston University School of Theology.

As a seeker who has meditated with yogis in the Himalayas, sought visions in the Peruvian Andes, and encountered holiness through spiritual practices, I work with each practitioner to cultivate a life that is attuned to the spiritual life.

I’ve written books about theology, urban ministry, and even a children’s book, Last Stop on the Z Train.

The areas where I feel called to speak and teach include the following:

• Radical Spirituality
• Sabbath as Transformative Practice
• Urban Ministry
• The Importance of Interfaith Experience
• The religious history of NYC
• Intentional Community
• Liberation Theologies
• Diversity that Makes a Difference
• Racial Reconciliation as Spiritual Discipline
• And more….
