Favorite Quote: “Patience wins all it seeks.” – St. Teresa of Avila

Fr. Daniel grew up in Bloomington, IL and is ready to serve the Peoria Notre Dame family as chaplain! He also is the parochial vicar at St. Philomena Catholic Church in Peoria. Fr. Daniel has an amazing vocation story (that you should definitely ask him about), which was heavily influenced by his whole academic life being at Catholic schools. This makes him very grateful that his new assignment at PND included going back to a Catholic high school and to offer many opportunities of spiritual growth for our school. Some of Fr. Daniel’s hobbies are sports, including running and basketball, and reading. And to answer your question, (we’re all wondering), he is 6’4″!
