SUMMARY
I earned a Masters of Theological Studies with a specialization in Ethics and a Doctorate of Ministry with a
concentration in Government. My professional endeavors have focused on applied ethics, specifically the
fields of medical care, pharmacology, hospice and military chaplaincy. I have a unique combination of both
academic and professional ethics applications experience.
