Doug Jones, SJ

A native of Northeastern Pennsylvania, Doug loves that no matter where he goes, Jesuits seem to know his beloved home region as “the Area." He met the Society of Jesus at the University of Scranton, where he also discovered a love of the Middle East through a semester in Amman, Jordan. After graduate studies in political science at Rutgers University, Doug entered the Jesuits in 2016. An avid traveler, Jesuit life has taken him to Lebanon, Egypt, Bolivia, and close to twenty U.S. states in just a few years. He’s currently studying philosophy, theology, and deep dish pizza at Loyola University Chicago.
