EP: 7 Edwin Zuluaga - Franciscan Friar from the 305
We speak with Organization Effectiveness Manager, Edwin Zuluaga.
Edwin is based out of St. Louis, Missouri, he works within our Health Care system, & is responsible for Change Management.
Edwin has a fascinating story. He is a first -generation college graduate. His parents immigrated from Bogota & Medellin, Colombia to the US in the late 1980’s. After graduating high school, in a fast paced city like Miami, instead of choosing college or obtaining a job, Edwin decided to become a Franciscan Friar (Monk).
Franciscan, is a member of the Roman Catholic religious order founded in the early 13th century by St. Francis of Assisi. The Franciscan order is one of the four great mendicant orders of the church, and its members strive to cultivate the ideals of poverty and charity.
He decided to move to the Bronx NY, to study with Franciscan Friars. This meant waking up at 5am everyday for meditation, morning prayer followed by mass, community work, evening prayer and night prayer.…..this went on for about 4 years all at the age of 19!!
After some time, Edwin decided to leave the Franciscan brotherhood, to attend college, he graduated and eventually worked his way up to earning a Bachelors & Masters in Social Work to eventually becoming a Change Management rep at one of the nation’s major healthcare institutions.
