My Story
I grew up in a military family surrounded by vibrant Catholic community. I fell in love with Jesus at an early age and never looked back. As I grew, I also started spinning words like my mom and dreamed of joining the Army like my dad.
In time, God led me to become both a soldier and Catholic writer. Several years into my military service, I began facing painful progressive health issues, one of which has no cure. Yet in the depths of suffering I’ve also discovered the sheer heights of God’s love, and a surprising supernatural joy. This, too, grew to be a big part of my faith and mission, which the Lord called me to write about in an upcoming book called Offer it Up: Discovering the Power and Purpose of Redemptive Suffering.
My Mission
The joy I’ve discovered (especially in suffering) isn’t reserved for a select few; God desires it for you, too! The Lord has invited me to share the healing and wholeness He offers to all through writing, speaking, and connecting with you–His beloved.
