Benjamin Knab-DiNardo (he/they)

My name is Ben Knab-DiNardo, I'm from a little town called Rochester, Pennsylvania. I am currently completing a dual master's degree in Social Work and Divinity with a focus on community organizing, housing justice, and liberation theology. My vocational path has been shaped by integrating my academic disciplines with on-the-ground practice in spiritual communities, community development projects, and neighborhood-based organizing. Outside of school and work, I enjoy hiking with my partner Bekah and our dog Otie, biking around Pittsburgh, and reading and writing poetry. I'm looking forward to connecting and learning from others in the program, while imagining a new world in the shell of the old.
