Rev. Ash Temin is a program consultant at The BTS Center, as well as a spiritual director and writer. Until recently, Ash served as the Staff Writer + Program Manager at The BTS Center. Ash is a graduate of the University of Virginia (BA), the Irish School of Ecumenics at Trinity College Dublin (MPhil) and Harvard Divinity School (MDiv). Her time at both the ISE and HDS sparked a passion for ecological theology and prompted her to begin delving more deeply into the experience of ecological grief.

Before her time at The BTS Center, Ash held roles as an acting associate pastor and as a hospital and hospice chaplain, as well as various administrative roles at Harvard University. She also has worked as an adjunct professor and a freelance editor. After time spent living in Texas, Virginia, Colorado, Ireland, and Massachusetts, Ash is grateful to call Maine home. She lives with her husband and two cats and enjoys cooking with friends, laying in her garden hammock, hiking in the woods, playing in the ocean, and attempting to learn the Irish language with a cat on her lap.
