About Me

I'm an openly gay ordained pastor in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) who lives in Minneapolis. I'm currently the Associate Minister at First Christian Church in Minneapolis.

I was diagnosed with Aspergers Syndrome, a form of autism in 2008 . I'm still discovering how this affects my vocation and life in general and where autism and faith intersect.
