”I create paradise through compassionate awareness.”

John’s dedication to service began long ago in his college days when he chose the helping profession of Social Worker. Since then John has worked as a counselor helping his clients cope with their dire life emergencies. He also serves on numerous non-profit boards and on community service project teams. But beyond this specialized professional role, for the past 20-plus years he has been the coordinator of the Green Bay Zen community, hosting three services each week, and teaching yoga and Zen at St. Norbert College.
