I currently serve as the pastor of an RCA church whose congregation is people with developmental disabilities. Before my second career in ministry I served in a variety of non profits serving girls; women and children in poverty and issues of health. I have served in the area of anti racism; breaking down institutional racism; justice and equality. While serving a previous call I worked in recovery and restoration for Sandy on the New Jersey coast as well as worked on the ministry team of a church plant focusing on the LGBT as well as marginalized community folk living in poverty. I am currently working toward DMIN in pastoral care and counseling.
