Amanda Munroe lives in the Hudson Valley and loves to hear crunching and sloshing sounds when she walks, whether it’s through leaves, snow, or slush. She spends her days imagining a peaceful world and crafting strategies for how to get there in her job directing restorative practices at a small liberal arts college populated by as many trees as it is people.

Amanda holds an M.Div from Union Theological Seminary, where she was recognized with the Robert Wood Lynn Fellowship for Promise of Excellence in Teaching and the Kneeland Preaching Prize. Amanda also holds a Master of Arts in Conflict Resolution, awarded with distinction, from Georgetown University, where she subsequently directed mission integration and community-based learning in their Center for Social Justice Research, Teaching and Service. She holds a B.A. in French and Global Studies, awarded magna cum laude from North Park University.

When not pondering interspecies kinship ethics, Amanda is involved in community organizing, practicing yoga, cycling, and singing. She enjoys guest preaching and offers one-to-one spiritual care. Reach out to Amanda at am5520@utsnyc.edu and https://www.linkedin.com/in/amandamunroe123.
