Particular Interests | Fostering spiritual well-being, regardless of faith or non-faith background. |
Services provided | I am here for personal support, or just to lend an ear. I also facilitate the Discussion Group on Religion and run evening Meditation (both are regular weekly). Get in touch if you’d like to be involved. |
Particular Focus in Chaplaincy (Describe how you understand your work as a Chaplain) | I am full-time member of academic staff with the School of Humanities and Communication Arts and volunteer Chaplain. I see my role as a Chaplain in helping students navigate their own journey. My method of providing spiritual care involves, first and foremost, being a human point of contact for those who need it; to never prescribe my own points of view, but rather help students find their own meaning through their own struggles and successes and within their own structure of belief, or non-belief. What I see is that people have the same spiritual needs despite their (non-)religious background, though not in spite of it. My hope is to be able to provide a service to students and staff who might be seeking spiritual understanding not always within conventional boundaries. |

Wisdom saying (e.g. quote or sacred text) | For me there is only the travelling on paths that have heart, on any path that may have heart. There I travel, and the only worthwhile challenge is to traverse its full length. And there I travel looking, looking, breathlessly.
– Don Juan (from, The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge by Carlos Castaneda) |
Anything else | I have three beautiful children for whom I am grateful. Blissfully wedded to Natasha. |
