About Me
What I love
What I love
What I love
God
Music. Writing. Food. Community.
These are the things that have defined my life.
In the beginning that looked like Church, musicals, journals, Italians and choir.
Now it looks like meditation, chanting, blogs, Zoom meetings and classes and theatre.
Things have appeared to have changed over time but in one form or another these remain.

I love writing them, singing them, speaking them. I love to write, tell stories and talk about the meaning of life.
So I wrote a book about my life (Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life), a blog about the meaning in everyday life (Pasta, Presence and a Parrot: Discovering the Spirit of God in every day things), a play about

So I wrote a book about my life (Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life), a blog about the meaning in everyday life (Pasta, Presence and a Parrot: Discovering the Spirit of God in every day things), a play about Sr. Joan's life and mine (Joan Chittister: Her story, my story, our story)
I recorded two different CDs: singing secular inspiring songs (Spark of Creation) and singing sacred songs (Sacred Songs, Sacred Space)
Theatre
What I love
Theatre
What a spiritual exercise to discover another's motivation, empty yourself and become them so you can tell their story and hopefully move an audience to feel more connected to them as well. This is what theatre is for me and then there's the company you are working with...a community of change-makers. Theatre is ministry, holy work, disguised as entertainment.
Accomplishments
Spark of Creation
Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life
Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life
"This CD is born from, and is a celebration of, this "spark" that I call the Spirit of God."
Featuring songs of David Friedman and rarely heard songs from musicals you know and some you don’t know—but all of them offer inspiration.
Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life
Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life
Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life
A true and intimate memoir. Views of life and God are transformed as we experience priests through the eyes of a Catholic woman negotiating through the sometimes murky waters of a changing church and a a changing world. Sometimes light-hearted, sometimes troubling, but always honest, we see the author inspired by, and sometimes despite, the priests of her life.
Joan Chittister: The Play
Through Stained Glass: the priests of my life
Sacred Songs, Sacred Space
Joan Chittister: Her story, my story, our story is a one-woman play about the intersecting lives of women overcoming adversity, domestic abuse & injustice.
”The work is seamlessly, artfully and movingly welded together. It’s a fresh and interesting approach to the notion of the universality of women today. It has heart and substance...great praise.”
Joan Chittister
