Sam was ordained a priest in 2014. As one of the co-founders of TJP, Sam kept the servers running and explained to other editors why "just move that box over there" was not as simple as it sounded. He's grateful that using his technology talents for the service of the Gospel wasn't limited just to fixing computers for other Jesuits. He currently works at America Media.
