Jewish Educator

I teach at B'ShERT and The Workers Circle. I also make virtual board games for Jewish education, originally built for distanced learning. Give them a try (desktop only)!

Dog Lover

I love my dogs more than words can describe. Check out Zeke’s instagram account, @zekethecoton!

Dancer

I love contra dancing and West Coast Swing dancing. I go to dance weekends, and at dances I'll dance the whole night long! I also maintain CDNY's website.

Cardist

I like to come up with new cool ways to shuffle cards. You can check out my cardistry instagram, @cardistashley, if you want to see my skills in action!

Mac and Cheese Lover

I love macaroni and cheese. You can find me eating it at least twice a week. Enjoy these photos of me with my beloved mac and cheese below!

Italian Speaker

Ho studiato in Italia per cinque mese durante la mia laurea. Mi piace Italia molto, specificamente la lingua e il cibo! Cerco spesso le opportunità di praticare il mio italiano. Mandami un messaggio in italiano qui!
