Hello. I'm pleased to meet you.
I grew up in both Long Beach, California and Holon, Israel, and was lucky enough to serve congregations as a student rabbi in Mattoon, IL, Richmond, IN, and Marion, IN; as a rabbi-educator in Sacramento, CA; and as a senior rabbi in Coral Springs, FL. Currently I reside in southern California and serve the Greater Los Angeles and Orange County communities.
A recipient of numerous Education awards, my writing on education, spirituality, and inclusion has appeared in various Jewish publications including The Jewish Community Chronicle, The Reform Advocate, the book The Sacred Encounter: Jewish Perspectives on Sexuality, and most recently, on the blog Sinai and Synapses. I hold a B.A. in English and Philosophy from Whittier College, a M.A. in Philosophy from California State University, Long Beach, and a M.A. in Hebrew Letters and rabbinical ordination from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion.
My husband and I have three young sons, and when I'm not reading, writing, or watching a Star Trek episode, you'll find me jumping with them on a trampoline, playing Minecraft, or tripping over LEGO pieces.
