Fr. Emmanuel was born and raised in western New York and joined the Franciscan Friars Conventual in 2012. After completing a Bachelor of Arts in Theology and Religious Studies and obtaining a Certificate of Pastoral Ministry at the Catholic University of America, he taught Theology at Curley for three years. He then moved to Canada to complete his Master of Divinity degree at Regis College, University of Toronto in preparation for ordination as a friar-priest. Having completed his studies, Fr. Emmanuel is very excited to return to Curley to teach once again!
Outside the classroom, Fr. Emmanuel loves the outdoors and spending time with friars, friends, and family. He enjoys reading on a wide range of topics, singing and playing guitar or piano, and continuing his childhood hobby of training in various martial arts when he can.
Most importantly, Fr. Emmanuel is grateful for the privilege of continuing the mission of Jesus as a friar-priest each day!
