CATHOLIC SPEAKER, EVANGELIST, & CURRICULUM DESIGNER

My Story

I’m so glad you’re here

Hi there! My name is Claire and I’m so glad that you found me - I hope to get to know you and the ministry that God has entrusted to you.

In college at what the Princeton Review calls the top party school in America, I fell away from the Church and into deep patterns of sin. An encounter with Jesus Christ saved my life and gave it a new, meaningful trajectory: full-time evangelization. After graduating from Tulane University’s School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, I became a campus missionary and served at the University of Texas at Austin for 7 years in athlete ministry. Today I work at the University Catholic Center as the Director of Evangelization and Communications.

My husband Ben and I currently live in Austin, TX. God has given us three beautiful little boys so outside of work in campus ministry you can find us nurturing our domestic church.

“Claire is inspiring, deeply personal, beautifully vulnerable, and really knows how to drive home a point. She gives voice to the thoughts and emotions hidden in the depths of hearts and motivates her audience to action. In a world filled with mistrust, today’s young people are deeply drawn to what is real and authentic. No matter the size of the crowd, you feel like Claire is sharing her heart with you personally over a cup of coffee at her breakfast nook. I have seen Claire speak for over a decade at various events and I could not more highly recommend a speaker.”
