I attached an assignment that I did for my final project in The Material Object in Jewish Literature with Professor Mann. I wrote about the pandemic and Jewish camp, which includes a graphic essay and a brief explanatory reflection paper. This project was done in April/May 2020 from Los Angeles. I am 22, had to move back to Los Angeles with my parents, siblings, and dogs when Barnard and JTS closed their dorms, and missed the spring of my senior year, as well as my three graduation ceremonies.

As a Masorti rabbi, I have written 3 devar Torah columns responding to the present pandemic and a tefilla composed for an erev Shemini Atzeret Zoom gathering of Kehillat Maayanot in Jerusalem. Those are attached. Two of the columns were written in both English and Hebrew for Rabbis for Human Rights (in israel), and the third for the �Masorti Matters� column of the British "Masorti Judaism� movement�s weekly newsletter.

I'm a 35 year old rabbinical student, Ima of 2 young kids and I'm married to a Davidson student. we currently (thanks to the pandemic) live in my home-state of Michigan, with my parents.: This was the digital invitation I shared for my senior sermon. The date for my sermon was the day after the 2020 election. The subject matter was already quite heavy (I spoke about my experience of becoming a parent and one of my children almost dying, in connection with the story of Akedat Yitzhak) and the day was also heavy with anticipation. The image that is sampled on this digital invitation is from a drawing done in oil pastels, which I did before my son Honi's brit milah.
35 year old Rabbinical Student, married to a fellow JTS - Davidson student. Parent to 2 kids under 3 years old. This submission is from a community I have served for the past 2.5 years as a student Rabbi.; These cue sheets show the major changes we made to our HHD services, as well as the presence of ZOOM. The services were led by myself and a lay leader who acted as ZOOM driver. There was a multimedia component in which two lay leaders (head of ritual and shul president) pre-recorded beloved congregational tunes. Additionally, I led these services from Michigan while the community were both in their homes in Connecticut, and a small group was gathered in person in the synagogue). There were roughly 40-50 people present at these services. At the culmination of Neilah - the triumphant finale after getting through all these complex stage directions, the zoom driver (who was also the shofar blower) forgot to unmute himself! We all had a great laugh - and somehow the moment really transcended the zoom room and was imbued with magic and connection.
