About My Family
My wife is a elementary school teacher, and we have one child. We are from the Midwest, but lived in North Carolina and Tennessee before moving to Arizona. We have backpacked across Europe and North Africa, completed the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage, and seek regularly to explore the world and experience cultures around us.
About My Ministry
I am the market manager of spiritual care services for Carondelet Health Network. I coordinate and oversee the spiritual care departments of our three hospitals in Tucson and Nogales, Ariz. Additionally, I help us maintain our connection the Catholic Health Association and local Catholic diocese. I am the chair of clinical ethics for two of our facilities and serve on various other committees to help our faith-based identity remain integrated into the services we provide. I am a board certified chaplain with the Association of Professional Chaplains. I completed a chaplaincy internship in hospice, first year CPE residency in Johnson City, Tenn., and second year residency in Wilmington, N.C., with a focus on mental health.
SBC Chaplaincy
Chaplaincy is a vital frontline ministry and extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless and advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in hard to reach places.
The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain or counselor are established by the using agency and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy or counseling ministry involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
