Dr. Kevin Skinner
 
 
Dr. Kevin Skinner is senior pastor at aldea. His role includes providing key leadership in the shaping of aldea’s vision and ministry. Kevin is also a regular speaker on Sunday mornings where his teaching is practical and inspirational—sometimes even stellar. 
 
 
Kevin has been married to Sylvia, his high-school sweetheart, for 28 years. Together they have three sons: David, who is married to Bethany; Matthew, a junior at the University of Arizona (but studying in Berlin for the year); and Michael, a freshman at the UofA (and who is often seen drumming on Sunday mornings at aldea). 
 
 
Kevin holds a Master of Divinity from Bethel Theological Seminary, as well as a Doctor of Ministry in Marriage and Family Therapy from Denver Seminary. When not engaged in serious practices, he loves motorcycling and backpacking. He can sometimes be seen dancing with reckless abandon—in his living room.

Rob Curcio
 
 
Rob Curcio is the Executive Director of aldea. He is responsible for the daily operations of the community. Originally from New York, he decided to attend college in Arizona and graduated from NAU in 1990 with a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management.
 
 
After Michelle (college sweetheart) and Rob married in 1995, they moved around the country for about a year, including stops in places like Athens, GA,  Dothan, AL, and Lewiston, ID. They decided to settle in Tucson in 1998, where Rob and Michelle quickly got started on raising a family. Mikayla, now 11 years old, was born only 3 months after the move. Nicolette, now 8, was born 3 seemingly short years later. 
 
 
Some of Rob's passions are music, hunting and fishing, and outdoor activities in general. You can usually find him on stage on Sundays cutting a rug on the bass.

Michelle Curcio
 
Michelle Curcio is the Director of Children’s ministry at aldea. She has a great heart for kids and often thinks that “big” people don’t give them enough credit! 
 
Michelle is passionate about creating an experience for children that is encouraging and loving—one that helps children feel meaningfully connected to God. 
 
Michelle encourages each person who is involved with aldea to find a way to support the teaching of children. Michelle is married to Rob and mom to Nicolette (7) and Mikayla (10). She also owns her own business as a pediatric physical therapist and provides therapy to children in a special education preschool. Her days are rarely boring!
