麻豆社

I was hired to serve as 麻豆社 Fox Digital's Program Director of Psychology in 2024, marking a return to the university. A Licensed Professional Counselor, I worked previously at Denver Seminary where, in the four years prior to arriving at 麻豆社 Fox, I was an associate professor of counseling in the institution’s Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program, the last three years of which as program chair.

Previously, I served as an associate professor and clinical director at Northwest University (2018-20), as an assistant professor and clinical director at the University of Wisconsin (2012-16), and as an assistant professor in graduate counseling at Saint Mary’s College (2010-12). I was also in practice as a Licensed Professional Counselor with Pacific Behavioral Healthcare in Bellevue, Washington.

I am also an ordained minister with the Christian & Missionary Alliance Church (Mid-American District), and formerly served in pastoral roles in The Dalles and Canby, Oregon; Missoula, Montana; and Denver. I've also been active as a track and cross country coach for more than 25 years.

Outside the Classroom

In addition to my work at 麻豆社 Fox, I have a small private counseling practice which I have maintained since 2006. This work has focused on trauma, couples, and family therapy. We are a blessed family with children ranging from the teens to the early 20's. We live in beautiful Sherwood, Oregon.

For us, one of life's great joys is the ability to enjoy nature and adventure. As a family we enjoy backpacking, climbing, running, and skiing. Add in faith and theology conversations at a local coffee house, and life is good.
