Hi! My name is Marcie Zook. Originally from Ohio, I now call New York City
my home. This will be my second year at Union Theological Seminary earning
my Masters of Divinity. I have always loved working with youth, but my
passion really took off when I became the youth director at my church
during college.
I enjoy spending time with teenagers, emphasizing the importance of building relationships and incorporating a variety of activities that focus on faith, service, and fellowship. Of course we will have fun in the process!
When I am not studying, you will find me hanging out with friends and family, appreciating the outdoors, reading, stargazing, flying, watching college football, listening to a variety of music, eating ice cream, exploring NYC, and anywhere near the water.
