Moshe Samuels

Program Director
 
A Chicago native and longtime Jerusalem resident, Moshe took over as program director after many years of experience working in the Jewish community both in Israel and abroad.  Throughout his career, Moshe has served as the Jewish Agency Shaliach for Birmingham, Alabama, as the Israel Fellow at the University of Western Ontario Hillel, was educational director of the Conservative Movement's youth organization in Israel, and much more.  Moshe is a graduate of the Gilboa Yeshiva and holds a teacher's certification in Jewish Studies from Herzog Teachers College.
 
As Program Director, much of Moshe's work happens behind the scenes dealing with the administration and financing of the program, but he'll still be around to teach classes and lead study sessions and Kabbalot Shabbat.
