Mac is a proud Minnesota native who often prefers cold weather to heat. Her calling to youth ministry began in seventh grade at her first Luke 18 Retreat, where a memorable experience sparked a lifelong desire to serve young people. She later realized that God had called her to this profession.
She graduated from the College of Saint Benedict, where she enjoyed creative adventures and building community with others. She has a passion for meaningful conversation, especially when accompanied by coffee, and loves seeking out new experiences, exploring, and traveling. At the same time, she finds joy in life’s simple pleasures, such as sitting around a fire with friends, listening to good music, going for a long drive, or reading a good book.
Mac and her husband, Kurtis, have a young daughter, Rosie, and are parishioners at Holy Trinity.
