What is your favorite thing to do in Boston?

Exploring all of the great neighborhoods in and around the city—there are so many within Boston proper and in the surrounding cities and towns and within an hour or two you can be at the beach or in the mountains.  I especially love checking out new restaurants and am always happy to give recommendations of some favorite places!

What is special about STM?

When I am asked about the best part of my job, my answer is always "the people."  STM has so many wonderful students, faculty, and staff with varying backgrounds, experiences, perspectives—I have learned so much over the years about other ways of seeing the world, about different cultures, and how to deepen my relationship with God by hearing the stories of the people at STM.

What is your favorite STM tradition?

I really enjoy the opening BBQ that STM hosts at the start of the Fall semester.  It's a great time to meet some of our new students and to re-connect with returning students, faculty, and staff and hear about their Summers.

The Chapels on campus—the Simboli Hall Chapel, St. Joseph's Chapel, St. Mary's Chapel—they all have a distinct beauty and inspire a sense of peacefulness and prayerfulness. 

What is your favorite thing to do in Boston?

Urban hiking on Sunday afternoons. I use a deck of cards called "Boston History: What Happened Here?" to explore Boston's diverse neighborhoods. I pick a card and use the site as a destination for my weekly walk. I also love to walk or run along Day Blvd. and Castle Island in South Boston.
