Sean holds a BA in History and Education from Central Connecticut State University, and a Masters in Theological Studies from the University of St. Michael’s College, Toronto. In addition to his roles as a teacher and a campus minister at Villanova, he has administered youth ministry programs in two Toronto-area parishes, served as a school chaplain in the Durham Region Catholic District School Board, and served for fifteen years with the Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association (OECTA), where he provided adult teacher training, spiritual formation and retreat facilitation.
