Rick is the Director of Evangelization and Stewardship at the Archdiocese of Seattle.  He is passionate about seeing a divine renovation of the parishes he serves.  Rick is a Father and Grandfather and brings years of experience of leading within the business world having previously served as the President and CEO of Eddie Bauer for fourteen years.  A medical crisis proved a turning point in Rick’s life when at the age of fifty he suffered a stroke.  This experience caused him to reevaluate his life and make a decision to step down from Eddie Bauer and serve the mission of the Church full time.
