Leadership
Bishop Lynch shaped me, and it continues to shape my family. I’m an alumnus, as are two of my children and my brother, and my parents—both educators—taught us to value strong academics, faith, and service. My kids are now the fourth generation in our family to pursue advanced degrees, and Bishop Lynch helped prepare them for that path. I support the school through service and giving because it forms students with character, leadership, and purpose. Supporting that work isn’t just meaningful to me; it feels like carrying forward the best parts of my family’s legacy.

Bishop Lynch in its essence is family, it is community. From the moment I toured Bishop Lynch as a middle schooler, it was conspicuously different from other schools. There was vitality, community, engagement, and life in Bishop Lynch. I am glad to say after service as Chairman of the Alumni Board that there is still energy, community, and life in Bishop Lynch.
Many of my best friends were made at BL. My wife graduated with me - I owe my family to this school. I choose to support BL out of gratitude for its spirit and mission, for its energy, and for the friends and family I have gained along my lifelong journey as a Bishop Lynch Friar
