Dr.
Tommy Carrington, Visiting Assistant Professor of Psychology, has worked for Trinity since 1996, but his work until recently was at Trinity’s Florida campus. He has served as a juvenile justice chaplain, and ministries director for Miami Youth for Christ. He also founded Impact 922 Ministries, a ministry that focuses on training, coaching, and mentoring youth leaders.

Visiting Assistant Professor of Graphic Design

Professor Park is currently finishing up her Master of Fine Arts (MFA) at Vermont College of Fine Arts, with anticipated graduation in October 2020. As a designer and artist, she is passionate about a variety of media including printmaking and illustration. Her work blends her personal cross-cultural experiences as a Korean who has lived in the U.S. and Romania with reflection on identity in Christ and our freedom to live into our true calling in Him, attempting, through her art, to uncover issues around unrealistic standards and expectations in culture.
