Ana is a
newly-minted Unitarian Universalist minister and
is thrilled to be serving the UUCC congregation. She brings a strong
commitment to social and environmental justice and seeks to make activism
and service central to her ministry. She also brings a great love of music
and the spoken word to her worship services. She is a student of Jewish
spiritual teachings as well as yogic and Hindu philosophy.
Previous to her
career in ministry, Ana was a singer-songwriter living in San Francisco. Her award-winning songs
were glowingly reviewed in Billboard magazine and she produced one album
entitled Hunger. To make a living during that time, Ana worked as a
producer and account manager in internet advertising, riding the dot com
wave until it crashed on the shore of reality in the late 90's.
Ana was
ordained at the Unitarian Church of Hinsdale, where she served as a
ministerial intern for two years. In addition to serving here at UUCC, she
also serves as Assistant Minister at Unity Temple Unitarian Universalist Congregation in Oak Park, IL.
Ana's MDiv is from the University of Chicago
Divinity School and she has an undergraduate degree in music from Brown University..
