Biography

I am a vowed Jesuit working at LMU as a part of my formation in the Society of Jesus. In addition to teaching, I work in LMU's Community of Care, serving LMU's students as a resource and advocate in their success. My academic research focuses on gender and sexuality. I'm particularly insterested in how LGBTQ+ communities use rhetoric to create community in public and private spaces. My current research focuses on the rhetoric of gender in the Catholic imagination.
