Canonically Resident Priest
Rector at St. Stephen’s, Schenectady
Born in Norwich, I am native to Central New York and a cradle Episcopalian. I have spent most of my life living in Chenango and neighboring rural counties of central NY (including areas resident in the Diocese of Albany) and working as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I was ordained to Holy Orders in 2015, and most recently, I served in the northernmost part of the Diocese of Central New York as Rector to The Episcopal River Parishes located along the St Lawrence Seaway. I am an avid learner (or perhaps a bookworm), and a graduate of SUNY Binghamton, SUNY Albany, General Theological Seminary, and Wilkes University. I enjoy reading, writing, running, baking, and retreats at Holy Cross Monastery, where I have been an Associate for about thirteen years. My husband Gary and I enjoy our rather large blended family. Our current household includes our (grand)sons, Loyal and Levi, and our two fur babies, Bella and Yana. We are all excited to join you in ministry at the parish at St. Stephen’s, the Diocese of Albany, and the community of Schenectady.
