Faculty & Staff Directory

Kieran grew up in England and first came to the United States right out of high school as a youth missionary for NET Ministries. After this gap year, he returned home to earn his B.A. in Philosophy from the University of East Anglia while also serving as a student officer in the Cambridge University Royal Navy Unit. He then returned to the States after receiving a full-ride fellowship for his M.A. in Catholic Studies at the University of St. Thomas, where he married his sweetheart, Kayla.

The couple moved to Kayla’s home area in California’s Central Valley to pursue careers in education. Over four years, Kieran transitioned from teaching to administration, serving as Dean in his final years. In the midst of the COVID pandemic, Kieran and his family returned to the Midwest to work at Northridge, drawn by the opportunity to be part of the leadership team at a school whose mission he is deeply passionate about.

At Northridge, Kieran serves as Head of High School and teaches Philosophy and Theology. He and Kayla live in the area with their four children.
