Ever since I was a young girl, I have enjoyed stories.
I wrote myths and fairy tales in elementary school. For a long time, I thought that I might be a journalist.
But, my love for Judaism and its sacred stories led me to become a rabbi. Stories that I created for the
classroom or pulpit became books that I was lucky enough to have published.
When I am not writing Jewish children's
books and Jewish teen novels, I am the Director of Congregational Learning at Har Shalom in Potomac, MD. I
was ordained in 1997 from Hebrew Union College in New York City. I have worked at Jewish camps, led more Jewish
retreat weekends than I can count, and enjoy teaching pre-schoolers, senior adults and everybody in between.

I grew up in Columbia, MD, and graduated
the University of Michigan. I am married to David Cohen – a journalist. We are joyfully raising three children
- Arianna, Jesse and Ezra.
