our team

Craig Wong, DMin, Executive Director

"It is my joy and privilege to lead NCB, in service of the whole body of Christ, in these changing and uncertain times. I've always been ‘big picture’ oriented, so I'm energized whenever gathering pastors, laity, theologians and other academics around the looming questions of our day.” 

Elizabeth Watt, Administrative Director

"I find it immensely hopeful to be part of a team bringing people of faith together, across some of our generational and cultural divides, to ask meaningful questions, listen, and learn for the wellbeing of our whole community."

Russell Yee, PhD, Academic Programs Director

“I love how New College Berkeley helps churches and believers in the Bay Area thoughtfully reflect on matters of faith, culture, history, and current events. Across the spectrum of Christian traditions, we gain so much from precisely the kind of conversations and experiences NCB fosters and provides.”

Uchanma Umez-Eronini, Program Communications Associate

“I am a Bay Area Solarpunk and enjoy conversations that explore the prophetic and the present! I am delighted to serve NCB in the programs & communications role and bring together passions for technology with a passion for discipling the capital c church.”
