I grew up in Boston and had a career as an accountant; first as a CPA at Deloitte & Touche, followed by 30 years leading the Accounting and Finance teams in various public and private companies.

I heard God's call shortly after my retirement in 2021. It first started as a desire to go back to Mass more regularly. It blossomed from there by getting more involved in parish activities such as faith formation, retreats and ministry work. This prompted me to dedicate more of my life to my faith, which led to a vocation to the priesthood. I applied to the Priesthood Formation Program in the Orlando Diocese, where I relocated part-time in 2022. Once I was accepted, my Vocations Director sent me back home to Boston to Pope St. John XXIII.

I enjoy working out and seeing what my body is capable of. Over the years, my workout style and preferences have changed as I've aged so that I now approach it with both health and longevity of life more in mind.
