Favorite thing about Frassati:
Frassati Catholic Academy is in a great spot in our history. We have opportunities for growth, dedicated support from St. Mary’s and Pius X, engaged families, a faculty that loves Catholic education, and loves teaching. We have a great relationship with our big little town, plus the excitement of entering our second decade, and the unrepeatable gift of the upcoming canonization of our Pier Giorgio Frassati.
About me:
I’m born and raised in suburban Chicago, educated in the public schools down there and received the sacraments. I received a bachelor’s of science degree in finance from the University of Illinois, did a sint of missionary work, another in the seminary. I received a master’s degree in Catholic Studies from the University of St. Thomas, and studied Catholic school leadership at the St. Paul Seminary. I married a Minnesota girl, and we’re raising our three kids just down the road in North St. Paul. I’ve been in Catholic education for ten years, and I’m excited to be a part of this community.
