Maria graduated from St. Catherine University with a degree in English. Her diverse background and experience in teaching, missionary leadership, and communications made her a great addition to the weDignify team.

Joining staff in May 2019, Maria’s vast experience with Missionary Families of Christ in organizing conferences suited her well to lead weDignify’s new initiative in building the first ever March for Life Chicago Convention in 2019 and to mentor college students in pro-life leadership in 2020.

In 2023, Maria step into the role of Director of Mission Formation and will continue to mentor our student leaders as well as lead our missionary staff on campus to continue to build a culture of life, thriving with joy!
