(MWTS), a not-for-profit organization dedicated to renewing the Church and society as a whole by proclaiming God's eternal Truth and love for all. Since then, he has had the opportunity to speak to hundreds of thousands of teens and adults across the country and internationally.

Sean has been a guest on multiple programs on the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) and has been featured in nationally recognized magazines and newspapers. In 2000, he won two honors at the UCMVA UNITY Awards, and in 2004 he was the recipient of the National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry’s “For God and Youth” award. Sean has performed and spoken at venues such as: The National Catholic Youth Conference, World Youth Day, many Steubenville youth conferences, and the CreationFest and SoulFest Christian music festivals. He also has been challenging men at diocesan men’s conferences throughout the country to live their faith and lead others to Christ. This spring, Sean graduates from Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, Conn., where he already serves as an instructor and retreat leader.

Building on his organization’s work in the U.S., Sean has also mobilized a team to help the poor of Haiti.
