About Dana
I grew up Jewish. My family was active in our small community in Connecticut and I loved getting dressed up for High Holidays and being sandwiched in with the older generations davening. When I was of bat mitzvah age, and loved Hebrew school and helped lead services. Still today, my bat mitzvah remains one of the most cherished days of my life. At an age when many turn away from religion, I loved being Jewish and was always proud of my heritage.
My path meandered in unique ways. I pursued a double major at Colgate University in East Asian Studies and Religious Studies. I voraciously learned about all religions and recall realizing that despite the many different practices and rituals, most traditions I encountered prayed to the same God and all in some way encouraged the same two living goals: love and connection.
Years after college, I moved to a mountain town and became very involved with the Jewish community, the more I longed to deepen the connection to my Jewish roots. By helping these kids become adults and understand the power of their traditions, I felt more connected to my own self. My father calls me the “keeper of the flame,” and through these activities my own light burned brighter.
This led me to going back to school and I received my smicha in 2023. I understand now that the end of this particular journey, which has brought me love, connection, and purpose, is actually another exciting beginning for my Jewish education and experience. After all, as the great Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks says, “To be a Jew is to travel. Judaism is a journey, not a destination.”

Dana has been the best teacher I have ever worked with. She helped me get ready for my bat mitzvah in the best way possible. She made lessons fun while still being productive. She also made sure we could talk. We talked about my life a lot, and then she not only helped me with Hebrew but also helped me figure out life as a middle schooler. I have had the best time with Dana, and I was so sad to lose my best friend, but she is now helping other kids, and I hope they love her just as much as I did. Dana is awesome.
