Occupation	Adjuct Political Science Professor
Introduction	I am a person who is in search of. I am in search of learning more about my Catholic faith, God, myself, others, cultures and places. I often think of how St. Francis would say, "Who are you God and Who am I?" I enjoy reading, hiking, cooking, wine tasting and hanging out with my family. Some of the best conversations I 've ever had have been with the elderly. I've learned that you find friends where you least expect it and some of my best conversations have been with random strangers. With this blog I hope to share my thoughts on my faith and where I am on the journey. If the spirit moves you, please feel free to leave a comment, so I can learn from you and we can grow together. As time progesses, I press on in search of something more, St. Francis' prayer and question above has become my own. I know there is something out there calling me, so I press on in search of it...
