In 2014, after a seven month sabbatical in Israel during which she participated in several Encounter programs, Sally decided to join the Board of Encounter. She is an active lay-leader, writer, and consultant in the Jewish community. Sally is the Co-Founder and Past-Chair of Moving Traditions, and has previously been on the Boards of Congregation B’nai Jeshurun in New York City, the Jewish Funders Network, the American Jewish World Service, and the Jewish Women’s Archive. Sally’s articles on philanthropy, Judaism, feminism, and class have been published in a variety of books and newspapers. For nearly two decades, she consulted to not-for-profit organizations — working first with KPMG Peat Marwick and then with her own firm. Sally served as the first NY/Tri-State Regional Director of the New Israel Fund, and was the first employee of the Israel Women’s Network in Jerusalem. She is also committed to research in Neurofibromatosis (NF-1) and is involved with N-TAP (the Neurofibromatosis Therapeutic Acceleration Program at Johns Hopkins) as well as the Children’s Tumor Foundation. Sally lives on the Upper West Side with her three young children. She is a graduate of Wellesley College and the Yale School of Management.
