Meet the Team

I am a Northern European implant in the American south where I live with my spouse and kids. Originally at home in the world of international politics, economics and human rights, life has taken me through various cultures, experiences and vocations before parachuting me into my current role.

tina@larcheusa.org

I’m proud to be a native Oregonian, and have been settled in Portland, Oregon for almost 20 years. I love the outdoors and am an avid fisherman so spend a good deal of time in the surrounding rivers. I also enjoy my favorite sports teams and am passionate about good wine and food.

andrew@larcheusa.org

I am native to and recently resettled in the Boston area, close to my large and social family. In between, I spent 30 years in other east coast cities – Philadelphia, Baltimore and DC – with a 2-year jaunt to Belfast, NI with L’Arche. I try to keep my mind sharp with crossword puzzles, my hands and creative spirit busy making things out of fiber (spinning, felting, weaving) and my heart open with new voices in poetry and podcasts.

sharon@larcheusa.org

I’m a recovering journalist who loves to shape and share stories about the church’s mission of service that can change the world. As the parent of a son with autism, I am a committed advocate for those of differing abilities, and for creating just and sustainable communities where all are welcome and fulfilled.

andy@larcheusa.org

I live in Portland, OR with my husband, kids, and big extended family. I love to paint, read, be in nature, travel, and laugh with friends. L’Arche’s mission to celebrate the unique value of every person motivates my work.

aarcuri@larcheusa.org

I started my journey with l’Arche over 20 years ago as an assistant in France. Since then, I’ve crossed country and globe through a diversity of organizations and roles – all the while staying connected to this community of heart and transformation. Today, I live in the North with my family where you might find us being wildly curious outdoors or inside busily scooping ice cream.

hkruh@larcheusa.org

I grew up on a farm in central Wisconsin, lived in Utah for most of the 80s and 90s, and came to Oregon with my partner (now husband) twenty years ago. My main preoccupation outside of work is photography of historical or cultural spaces such as the Portland Japanese Garden or the Pendleton Roundup. Research on the origins of Czech immigrants to Wisconsin, as part of an informal group of researchers, also takes up an inordinate amount of my time.

rgreenough@larcheusa.org

I’m the proud daughter of humble Taiwanese immigrants who taught the importance of rolling with the punches, learning to find my footing and standing up strong. Perhaps that’s why one of my favorite activities and life metaphors is trying to surf in different conditions around the world, and to witness how people create opportunities and perceive mobility within various global contexts.

echen@larcheusa.org

I grew up near St. Louis, MO, but Los Angeles, CA is now home. I have been a member of L’Arche since 2016 and my experiences both internationally and domestically with the organization have helped cultivate my passions for diversity and inclusion, community building, and creativity. In my free time I enjoy painting and illustrating, spending time outdoors, curating Spotify playlists, and petting other people’s dogs.

pdavis@larcheusa.org

I have been part of L’Arche since 2002, and am currently a Ph.D. candidate in Theology and Education focusing on the dialogue between the spirituality and practice of L’Arche, disability studies, and considerations for accessible and inclusive religious education. I interweave my L’Arche and academic work with my family life, which includes a very active and curious toddler-aged son who loves exploring the great outdoors with his mom and dad.

tmurphy@larcheusa.org

I’m an immigrant from Russia who grew up in Pennsylvania and settled in Syracuse, NY after college. When I’m not working, I love to hike, draw, take photographs, travel and feast on delicious food. My life is made rich by my two sons and husband.

serickson@larcheusa.org

Growing up most of my life in Virginia, the Midwest has been my home since 2002. My husband and I recently relocated to outside Minneapolis, after living nearly 20 years in Kansas City, MO. I originally joined L’Arche in 2005 and have held various roles since. I love to travel, host friends and family, and pass time by playing card games—my favorite being Canasta!

tmarquis@larcheusa.org

Like my Jesuit friends, I try to find God in all things. I come alive wandering with my backpack through new countries, meeting people from all walks of life, and finding delicious street food. I have been a big admirer of L’Arche for over 20 years and have been a long time advocate for social and environmental justice. You can find me most often reading, hiking, or cooking for friends.
