Diocese of Dallas

St. Thomas Aquinas, Dallas, TX

Sophomore / Second Year

All my life, I have been raised in Dallas; so, I will be a seminarian for the Diocese of Dallas. I was baptized at St. Pius X in Dallas, and I received my first communion and confirmation in my local parish, St. Thomas Aquinas where I also attended grade school. I graduated from Jesuit College Preparatory in 2006. After attending one year at Texas Tech University, I decided to answer the Lord’s call in the first few months of 2008. I am very thankful for all that has been provided through Holy Trinity Seminary and the University of Dallas. The opportunity for formation and education here is satisfying beyond measure.

“I will never forget you.
See, upon the palms of my hands,
I have written your name.”
—Isaiah 49:15-16
