A Queer Chaplain

Spirituality is what lifts me into who I am. From my earrings, to my tattoos, to my effeminate way and masculine moments.” Working toward bringing all of who I am wherever I am, without hesitation or apology, even if I am still a little afraid. I feel called to be with people around death and dying to one’s self with people who can identify with my experience in relation to gender and a sexual identity, spirituality and religion, addictions and substance use, HIV status, and the like. My desire is to make individual spiritual connections accessible to those who have previously felt, were told and previously denied.
