Brooklyn Michalowicz is a third-year Rabbinical student at HUC-JIR in New York. She spent the past year studying at the Pardes Institute of Jewish Studies in Jerusalem where she received a certificate in Jewish Experiential Education. Raised in Los Angeles, Brooklyn is a proud UCLA Bruin with a B.A. in Sociology. She has since worked at Columbia/Barnard Hillel, Westchester Reform Temple, and Eisner Camp.

She is very much so looking forward to working with Central staff and congregants!
