Gabriel (Gabe) Colombo is originally from Austin, Texas, the ancestral homelands of the Coahuiltecan, Tonkawa, Comanche, and Lipan Apache peoples. He received a B.A. in Plan II Honors (humanities) and urban studies from the University of Texas at Austin and a Master of Architecture from the Harvard Graduate School Design. Having practiced as an urban planner and designer in Boston for several years, he is now pursuing ordination as a priest in the Episcopal Church and hopes to continue weaving together spirituality and urban design, cultivating urban spaces of communion among people and land through creative ministry, scholarship, and design practice. Gabe will be an M.Div. student at Berkeley along with the ISM. He enjoys conversations and activities related to urbanism, art, architecture, liturgy, literature and poetry, music, hiking, cycling, film, theatre, and the ephemeral.
