Zach is excited to be taking up the position of Youth Director. “I literally grew up in the halls of Beth Emeth, where both of my parents have spent years teaching children at all levels,” he says. “From Beth Emeth Early Childhood Center (BEECC) through Confirmation, Beth Emeth was my second home. I was an active member of the synagogue’s youth groups from middle school through high school, making lifelong friends along the way. I realize all of the amazing things that Beth Emeth’s youth programs did for me, and it is my goal to provide excitement, community, and a strong Jewish identity for the next generation. I look forward to beginning this new journey in our Beth Emeth community.”
