College
I completed my BA with a concentration in Psychology from Charter Oak State College, and an MDiv from Asian Institute of Theology/ACTS Academy in South Asia. I completed my PhD in Intercultural Studies at Asbury Seminary in Kentucky in 2013.
Workplace
After many years in Asia, where I lectured and consulted on issues of cross-cultural communication and folk religion, I taught Intercultural Studies for four years at Oak Hills Christian College in Bemidji, MN, and have been teaching Intercultural Studies at Kingswood University in Canadian New Brunswick since 2016. I also teach online for Asbury Seminary.
