I taught college Communication courses and worked in college campus ministry at both Catholic and public universities. In 2003, I began directing Mount Tabor Center and founded SPIRITUS in 2009. I am passionate about giving young adults opportunities to evangelize and leading them into holiness. I have written several spiritual books for young adults. I live in Menasha with Katherine and our six kids.

​

I felt the call to take part in the new evangelization and am so thankful to have been brought to SPIRITUS. I have a background as a Professional Scouter and enjoy adventurous activities such as windsurfing and sailing. I am passionate about serving youth and leading them to the things they never thought possible. At Mount Tabor, I work with donors as well as bringing in new SPIRITUS team members each year.

​

​

The Mount Tabor Center has become like a second home to me over the years. I was lucky enough to spend three years on the SPIRITUS team before leaving to earn my Masters in Theology from the Augustine Institute. I am excited to be back in a staff role and continuing to help equip young people with the skills they need to be witnesses of Christ to everyone they meet. In my spare time, I love all things trivia, jigsaw puzzles, and a good book.

​

I have known that my calling in life is to feed people.  This has taken many forms during my career.  It is God-sent that in May, 2016 I was here at Mount Tabor Center for a SPIRITUS program.  Long story short, I’m thrilled to now be a part of this ministry.  The SPIRITUS team, a.k.a., “my kids”, bring so much positive energy and love of the Lord to this ministry and to me.  I am blessed to be here.

​​I joined SPIRITUS in the summer of 2017 when I felt the call to use my talents to serve the Lord. My background consists of many years of graphic design, primarily as a freelancer, while also working with a family business that services the dairy industry. I am an active member at St. Pius Parish and a proud parent of two Xavier Catholic School students. It is a great honor to be part of a mission that keeps the Holy Spirit alive in our youth!

Before joining this staff, I worked as a professional youth minister for 8 years.  Now, I am blessed to train and mentor our SPIRITUS missionaries who are so inspiring to all of us!  One of my favorite responsibilities is coordinating the Youth Ministry Internships for SPIRITUS.  When not working, you will find me spending time with family and studying.  I recently started a Master's degree program in Theology through Augustine Institute.

I was lead to Mount Tabor after choosing to leave a 30 year career in healthcare. I put my faith in God and knew He would lead me where I could serve Him best. I feel both humbled and privileged to assist the SPIRITUS team, who are filled with the Holy Spirit, evangelizing to the youth. God is amazing!

I joined the Mount Tabor Team in March 2018 after spending the previous 18 years as a stay-at-home mom of 4 children, ranging from 13 to 19 years old.  I previously worked as a Chemical Engineer in the manufacturing industry.  The Catholic Faith is an integral component to the family life my husband Dan and I have chosen to create over the past twenty years and I have seen such a powerful witness to living out this faith with the Mount Tabor and SPIRITUS family. The call to St. John Paul II's "New Evangelization" falls upon all of us as we strive to draw people toward Jesus and love and away from loneliness and lack of purpose.  And that mission is really alive and working here at Mount Tabor!  God Bless.

​

In 2007 I retired from teaching. I have always been a "caretaker" with both my family and career. Working at Mount Tabor offers me the opportunity to connect and to serve with staff, volunteers, and guests.

I joined the SPIRITUS Staff in 2015 after serving as Catholic School Principal, DRE and Youth Minister in parishes in Minnesota, Wyoming and Wisconsin. I am deeply committed to forming our team into strong missionary disciples. I coordinate Thursday formation, assist with training, mentor, manage the schedule and assign team to retreats. I live in Clintonville with my husband, Lincoln, four children and a dog.

I felt called to SPIRITUS after taking a 20-year hiatus from the outside working world to raise our six children. My previous work experience was with Marquette University and a company that helped children with learning difficulties. I am an active volunteer in the Catholic school system, church and community. It is such a privilege to take part in bringing God’s message to our youth!

​

​

For the past 15 years I have enjoyed being a stay-at-home mom with our 3 children. Many of those years were spent moving while my husband was active duty Navy. Spending time with my family is a priority for me, especially outdoors. I enjoy gardening, camping, kayaking, biking, long walks, both downhill and cross country skiing, cooking and sewing,  . I'm not one to sit still for long! I play flute at St. Gabriel Parish in Neenah and dabble with guitar by the campfire. I feel blessed to use my bookkeeping skills at such a faith filled organization as SPIRITUS!

I have eight children, who range in age from 25 to 11 years old and are home schooled. I also have the pleasure to spend time with my grandson.  My background is in the criminal justice field which I worked for several years in a variety of positions.  I am the proud mother of seminarian Sam Schultz and am  pleased to be a part of the SPIRITUS mission.
