But the deeper I studied, the more I fell in love with the Church Christ Himself established. And on Easter of 2025, I said “yes” again—this time to His Church—and was confirmed Catholic.

From my childhood, I was Southern Baptist, where I was very involved starting in my teenage years. I was involved in youth group activities, bible studies, and even played guitar in the youth group band. I was never really anti-Catholic, but I knew why we were Protestant.

I joined the Jesuits after undergrad in 2015. Through missionary activity, community life, and intense studies, the Jesuits have taught me how to grow in the joy and love of the Gospel. I am very much looking forward to ministering at a Parish and a Jesuit High School in Winnipeg this Fall.
