Presently I am studying at the Washington Theological Union seeking a Master’s of Divinity Degree for the Priesthood. I teach Religious Education at Our Lady of Vietnam Church in Maryland to post-confirmation students in the area of Church history.
I professed simple vows in 2001.

I have been with Carmelites for eight years. Community is what initially attracted me to the Carmelites but when I entered it was the contemplative and prophetic spirit of the Carmelites that made a lasting impression on me.
My advice to those considering a vocation to the Carmelites: “The Carmelite way is a life of communion with God, with fellow Carmelites, and with the people of God. Come and discover this way of life for yourself.”
