Oriana Li Halevy

Oriana became captivated by the richness and expansiveness of the Catholic intellectual, theological, spiritual, and liturgical traditions while pursuing a Master of Arts in Theology and intentionally seeking to rebalance her fulfillment portfolio—a journey that ultimately led to her midlife conversion.

Her professional background spans corporate law, international business consulting, technology venture investing, certified interpretation, and published translation. She serves as a board director and officer of the Harvard Christian Alumni Society, the Harvard Club of Silicon Valley, and Sand Hill Angels; as a trustee of the Sand Hill Angels Charitable Fund; and as an advisor to the Harvard Catholic Forum, supporting initiatives that promote rigorous, cross-disciplinary dialogue among theology, the arts, the sciences, and the marketplace.

Since 2021, Oriana has been active at CC@S in roles ranging from lector and Communion Minister to co-leading RCIA (now OCIA) and advising undergraduates, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and alumni. As Director of Adult Faith Formation, she guides faith exploration and cultivates intellectual and spiritual formation through programs that deepen theological understanding, foster spiritual maturity, and encourage lifelong growth. 

With a son in college and a daughter in graduate school, Oriana is particularly passionate about mentoring university students and young professionals. She considers it a joy and a privilege to serve at CC@S and to live out the theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity in community.
