The Institute of Catholic Theology

Rick Perry is currently both an adjunct professor with Franciscan University of Steubenville and high school teacher at St. Mary’s High School in Phoenix, while completing his PhD through KU Leuven in Belgium. He graduated with his bachelor’s degree in business administration from North Carolina State University in 2014, after which he obtained two master’s degrees in theology, his first from Franciscan University of Steubenville in 2017, and his next from KU Leuven in Belgium. While at Franciscan University, Rick has taught over a hand-full of courses ranging from THE 101 (Foundations of Catholicism), to introductory courses on the New Testament and Old Testament. His love for the Truth and the joy of sharing Jesus with his students has continually inspired him to continue as an educator at the service of the Church. Outside of studying and teaching, you can find him either on a jog, or hiking a nearby mountain. He also loves sharing coffee and conversation with friends.
