I am a licensed clinical social worker, doctoral researcher, writer, and seminarian working at the intersection of trauma, identity, faith, memory, and moral repair. Across my clinical, scholarly, and theological work, I am concerned with one central question: how do people, families, communities, and institutions recover continuity after rupture?

My work has grown out of years of trauma-informed clinical practice, research, spiritual formation, and close attention to the ways people survive harm without losing the possibility of meaning. I draw from neurobiology, attachment theory, resilience studies, ethics, Scripture, liturgy, contemplative practice, and lived experience to explore how healing becomes possible when truth, accountability, grief, and compassion are held together.

Professionally, I am a licensed clinical social worker and doctoral candidate, ABD, at Saybrook University in the College of Integrative Medicine and Health Sciences. My research focuses on identity coherence, psychological flexibility, caregiving structure, trauma, and recoverability: the ways individuals reconstruct meaning, belonging, and a stable sense of self after rupture, loss, and fragmentation.

This website gathers the larger ecosystem of my work: clinical practice, academic research, theological formation, writing, and archival reconstruction. Across these areas, I explore trauma, forgiveness, diaspora, ecclesiastical continuity, public grief, identity reconstruction, and recoverable belonging. Some of this work appears as scholarship. Some appears as essays, sermons, archival notes, films, or reflections. All of it is concerned with what remains possible after loss.
