Tyler Mahoney (Director since 2008)

Tyler is an innovative thinker who combines emerging philosophy with his Roman Catholicism. Tyler came to faith between two worlds, between evangelicalism and Roman Catholicism—he had a Roman Catholic Young Life leader and was catechized in both traditions. A practicing Roman Catholic, Tyler works in evangelical ministry, mainly for Young Life and Off The Map. He worked in Alaska as a National Park Service ranger for four years, giving presentations and guided tours to hundreds of people at a time.

Tyler also excells in photojournalism, working at the Anchorage Daily News at the age of sixteen. As a college freshman, he became the photo editor of the Seattle University newspaper. In 2004, Tyler interned for Mike Judge, the director of Office Space, Beavis and Butthead, and King of The Hill. In June 2009, Tyler will receive his Bachelor of Arts in Theology and Religious Studies from Seattle University with a special emphasis in Social Justice and Church History.
