Richard and Peggy Notebaert Premier Fellowship (2022)

Theology doctoral student Noelle, is embarking on the last stage of a triple-Domer journey, having earned both her Bachelor of Arts in theology (with a supplemental major in physics), and a Master of Theological Studies at Notre Dame. She is drawn to exploring the relationship between faith and reason, and is excited to continue her research in the broader context of intellectual inquiry among a diverse community of interdisciplinary scholars at Notre Dame. Her research focuses on the interaction of critical Biblical studies and theology, specifically Jewish festivals and sacrificial practices and their reception in rabbinic Judaism and early Christianity.
