STEPHEN C. ARIBE

Using the privileges and professional skill acquired through the rigorous steps of higher education; in conjunction with my love for knowledge, I was geared into studying education leadership. My primary motif is to make a positive impact within our society, by integrating theories, research and evidence-based practices that embrace cultures and individual differences or diversity to a meaningful outcome. With enhanced knowledge in my area of study and being equipped as a researcher, educator, fundraiser, as well as practitioner; it is my delight to be of service to our present and future students, individuals, community with family, companies, career and educational issues.

Apparently accomplishments are heights attended within the logistics of my failures and success. I was ordained a Catholic Priest-on July 15, 1995. I worked in the Catholic Diocese of Umuahia for 12 years- 7years as the coordinator of the Propagation of Faith, two years as Rector of the Spiritual Year Center of formation and 3 years as Administrator of a Parish. I proceeded to United States, in May 2007- to commence a Master's Degree program in Systematic Theology at Seton-Hall University. I graduated in May 2009- with a Master's Degree in Systematic Theology. However, before then, I have my first Degrees in Philosophy and Theology from Urban University in Rome-1991 and 1995 respectively as well as One Unit Certificate from Overlook Hospital- as a Chaplain. I worked with the VA in Lyons on contract under the supervision of late Father William Warman for three years before getting back to school to finish my Doctorate in Education Leadership. While schooling, I was privileged to work at Trinitas Regional Medical Center -in Elizabeth as a Chaplain. I was also privileged teach at Bloomfield College -as an adjunct Professor of Philosophy and logic. I taught at Hudson County College- as a Professor of English with specific focus on essay formation. Later, I joined the US Navy- emerged as a Lieutenant- an officer in the military Today, with an honor status- I am finally a pathway to the VA- continue my service to the Veterans- as Chaplain. As a Chaplain working under the recruiting office at Wood bridge New Jersey- I navigated into the remaining 3 Units of Certificate for full time-Chaplain, I am currently in the last unit of its culminating point. However, I have been privileged to write about eight books- through my research work in areas of education, culture, politics, religion, economy and Judeo-Christian dynamics in the global setting.
