Westminster has been such a meaningful season of growth—especially in how it’s stretched and deepened my understanding of theology, Scripture, and the gospel. The classes have been rich and challenging in the best way, equipping me to think more clearly and live more faithfully. I’m also deeply thankful for the friendships I’ve made along the way. From those 4 to 5-hour Zoom study calls to deep theological conversations, the support, the laughter, and the shared journey of faith have meant more to me than I can put into words!

After graduation, I plan to continue serving in ministry and seek opportunities to teach and mentor others in their faith journeys. Westminster has been deeply transformative—spiritually and intellectually. Seminary challenged me to think deeply, love more fully, and trust God in new ways. I’ll always cherish those moments in lectures, readings, or small groups when something clicked in my heart and mind, leading to praise. I’m so grateful for the friendships, faculty, and support staff who made this journey meaningful. I leave with a full heart and great hope for what’s ahead!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at WTS, especially the way that everything was made practical.  The instruction equipped me for teaching and preaching God’s word.  While extremely practical, academic rigor was also a significant part of my time at WTS.  A huge thank you to all of my instructors, teaching assistants, and fellow classmates!  After graduating, my plan is to continue pastoring the church where I am currently serving at.  Additionally, I am also considering taking on a Master’s of Theology Degree.

I will continue working at my current job (Siemens Mdeical Solutions, USA).

Hello! My name is Curtis and I live with my wonderful wife and two young daughters in Washington State. I am a software engineer by day and an aspiring theologian by night. Lord willing, I want to use my new MATS degree paired with my tech skills to support the Church in our digital age. I freelance for a Biblical language learning platform and hope to find more opportunities like that in the near future. One of my absolute favorite parts of WTS Online is the Coffee House community! It really bridges the personal-connection gap for students (and now alumni!) who aren’t together on campus.
