I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. When I was just six, my family immigrated to the United States. I'm the oldest of three boys. I grew up in Miami, FL, lived in France for one year, and finished high school in Tulsa, OK.
I enjoyed playing soccer and ice hockey for my high school. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Oklahoma.
I got involved in the university youth ministry. I discerned God’s calling to the priesthood throughout college. I visited a summer program for a congregation called the Legion of Christ in 2003. After finishing my last year of studies I entered the Legion of Christ seminary in Cheshire in September 2004. From 2004 to 2007 I completed two years of novitiate and a year of liberal arts studies. Then I completed my philosophy degree in 2009.
In October 2009, I went to Dallas-Ft. Worth, TX, as a youth director. I worked to establish a network of youth clubs, retreats, and summer camps known as “DFW Conquest”. I also attended a two-week intensive course on youth mentoring at the University of Francisco Vitoria in Madrid. I finished a fourth year assisting the Legion of Christ youth ministry in Chicago as the director of a program for college students to dedicate a year to ministry within the Church.
I went to Rome in 2013 to study theology for three years. I obtained my degree in Theology in 2016 from the Regina Apostolorum Pontifical University. During his studies, I placed a lot of emphasis on my Scripture studies.
I was ordained a deacon on May 14, 2016. I was ordained a priest on December 10, 2016. From June 26, 2016 to Sept. 2022, I served as the Legion of Christ adolescent youth ministry director in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati and director of Camp River Ridge, a Catholic campsite in Indiana. From Sept 19, 2022 to Sept 1, 2023, I served as an Associate Pastor in the Diocese of Tulsa, OK. As of Sept 2023, I am studying a license in spiritual theology in Rome, Italy.
