Introduction I grew up in Lutherville, MD and attended Immaculate Conception, Towson High School and Towson University. I have a BS in Business Administration and Marketing. I worked for Citibank for 11 years in Information Services and Risk Management. I entered St. Mary’s Seminary in Baltimore in Fall 1997 and was ordained a priest in May 2003. My first assignment as a priest was as associate pastor of the Catholic Community of South Baltimore (Holy Cross, St. Mary Star of the Sea, and Our Lady of Good Counsel). After three years, I was appointed Administrator (and eventually Pastor) of St. Augustine in Williamsport and St. James in Boonsboro, MD. In Jan. 2011, I began my assignment as Pastor of St. Ursula in Parkville, MD until I arrived at Our Lady of the Chesapeake on Jan. 1, 2018. On July 1, 2022, I also became Pastor of St. Jane Frances. I enjoy being in the outdoors, especially on the water, which is another reason why I feel blessed to be in the “Dena.” In my spare time, I enjoy working on genealogy and trying to fill in my family tree. May the Holy Spirit watch over us and guide us on this journey of faith as we continue the work of becoming missionary disciples of Jesus Christ.
