I grew up in Carmel, IN with my mother, father, and three younger sisters. I was educated at Our Lady of Mount Carmel grade school, and then Carmel High School. Toward the end of high school I perceived, over and again, that the Lord was calling me to something more, something different. This perception ultimately led me to enter seminary. I have studied and received formation for the priesthood at the Pontifical College Josephinum (Columbus, OH), St. John Vianney (St. Paul, MN), the Pontifical University of St. Thomas or "Angelicum" (Rome), and Saint Meinrad in southern Indiana. I have happily been a priest of this diocese for four years and am pleased at the opportunity to serve here at All Saints and Saint Charles.
