I felt called to help people celebrate and honor life’s most sacred moments. As an Ordained Minister I can help those marrying their incarcerated spouse by providing the required documentation. I wanted to be able to serve my community with compassion and faith; especially for those who may not feel fully seen or supported in more traditional settings. This path allows me to combine my spiritual beliefs with a deep respect for love, diversity, and human connection.
