Sarah Krinsky is a second year rabbinical student at the Jewish Theological Seminary. She grew up in Los Angeles, California and went to Yale University, where she graduated with a Bachelor’s of Arts in 2012. At Yale, she was very involved in the Slifka Center for Jewish Life (which houses Yale’s Hillel), serving as the Hillel co-president her junior year of college. After graduating, Sarah spent a year as an Eisendrath Legislative Assistant at the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism (the “RAC”). At the RAC, she advocated on topics such as women’s issues, reproductive rights, immigration reform, judicial nominations and others. Sarah has had many meaningful experiences in Jewish education – some of her favorites include her many years at Gindling Hilltop Camp in Malibu, CA; teaching Hebrew School at the Yale Hillel Children’s School; and facilitating the RAC’s high school L’taken seminars – and is deeply invested in Jewish social justice.
