Federation Executive Recruitment and Education Program
Jewish Federations of North America
The Federation Executive Recruitment & Education Program (FEREP) is a graduate scholarship program funded through the Jewish Federations of North America that recruits, supports and develops future professional leaders for the North American Jewish federation system. I was awarded this scholarship in support of my studies at Baltimore Hebrew University and the University of Maryland Baltimore County
Leo Brody Award for Emerging Jewish Leaders
New Jersey Association of Jewish Communal Service
The Leo Brody Award recognizes emerging Jewish leaders in New Jersey with a paid trip to Israel. For my trip, I explored how communities in Israeli cities and suburbs engage young Jewish adults in religious, social and volunteer life.
The NY Jewish Week's 36 Under 36
The New York Jewish Week
Each year, the New York Jewish Week highlights some of the young people who are driving change in the community with their “36 Under 36” section. My work as president and founder of Jersey Tribe was recognized as a driving force connecting young Jewish adults in New Jersey.
