Mere Catholicism

about me

I’m a lay ecclesial minister working as the Director of Young Adult Ministries at my local parish in the Archdiocese of Minneapolis & St. Paul in Minnesota.

Before that, I was an IT professional working for the greatest city in the world, helping to solve some of the greatest social challenges of our time. I am also a husband, father, musician, armchair theologian, lay member of the Dominican Order, and avid reader of G.K. Chesterton.

projects and interests

  • I previously shared some of my experiences in and around New York City, and dropped random quotes & thoughts on another (now dormant) microblog, Enclaves.
  • I also help produce my kids’ podcast, Scattering Flowers.
  • I’m passionate about the Faith, and have been blessed with opportunities to talk and write about Roman Catholicism and share our journey on many occasions. You can find out more and watch some of these interviews here.
  • I also read a lot. I keep booklists of currently reading and completed here.
  • I’m a bit of a tech nerd, and tinker with my sites/projects quite frequently. You can read more about this site by checking out the colophon.
