Favorite Am Shalom Tradition
My 3 favorite traditions at Am Shalom are: 6th grade family day – where families share a family heirloom before hearing from the Holocaust Speaker; In Torah Study everyone is given the opportunity to share about any loved one for whom they are saying kaddish; Asking the in-person Hebrew School kids if they want pizza in Hebrew and them responding in Hebrew.

When did you know that Jewish communal service was the right path for you?
I knew in high school that I wanted to be a Jewish professional but it wasn’t until late college that I realized the rabbinate was my path and even later (a few years into being a rabbi) when I realized that education was my grand passion!
