I am a neurodivergent Catholic convert and graduate of Duke Divinity School. Trained in psychology, theology, vocational evaluation, and counseling, I write essays and reflections and conduct interviews on faith, freedom, vocation, human dignity, and natural law. My work explores the interior life and the ways our hidden God is encountered through reason, lived experience, the natural world, and the unexplained realities that continue to draw human beings toward truth.
Essays, Reflections, and Interviews
My interest in these subjects grew from lived realities, spiritual encounters, and religious conversion, all of which deepened my search for truth and the gradual unveiling of a hidden God.
Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam (c. 1508–1512) captures one of the most enduring images in Western art: the moment of encounter between God and humanity. The nearly touching hands have come to symbolize humanity’s longing for transcendence and the belief that human life finds its origin and dignity in God. In many ways, this image reflects the themes explored throughout this blog: the search for truth, the mystery of human freedom, the dignity of every person, and the often-subtle ways God reveals Himself through reason, experience, contemplation, and grace.
