Many beloved queer faith leaders who are dear friends of mine recommended Iliff/are Iliff Alum & part of the UMC. I was already in the process of searching for an MDiv Program. Here I am with one of those Iliff Alum, part of how I got here.

I'm a Moth Story Hour Judge for the Phoenix Storytellers monthly gathering. Here's one of my dear friends holding our very official signage from a Story Slam.
