A quote Brian loves:

“For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
Philippians 1:21

What Brian does at Guiding Light:

Finance, Admin, Operations

Favorite part of the job:

Working with the men as they reengage with the community after Foundations. Helping with their job searches, savings, and moves to Iron House. And even better watching The Promises be fulfilled in their lives.

Freetime fun:

Uncle to Lily & Graham. Dog Dad to Gus & Duncan.

Favorite Guiding Light Experiences:

Morning Ritual – especially when we have a talented drummer. And even more especially when one of the men is celebrating a sobriety milestone.

Favorite place to eat:

Forty Pearl

Favorite GLR lunch question:

Any of the questions during Vulnerability week. A good one is:

“Why isn’t the opposite of vulnerability invulnerability?”

Adjectives that describe Brian:

Intentional. Kind. Resourceful.

One of Brian’s quirky loves:

Beef & noodles. especially when the kitchen manager sneaks me a to-go box from the kitchen ;- )
