Hi & מה קורה! I’m Haddie, and I’m so excited to be the new IACT at UD! I grew up in sunny California and earned my B.S. in Business Administration from Sonoma State University, where I was actively involved on campus—serving as President of the Sonoma County Hillel, Phi Sigma Sigma, and the Order of Omega Honor Society.

My connection to Israel began after my unforgettable Birthright trip before my senior year, which inspired me to pursue an M.A. in Nonprofit Management from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Since then, I’ve been involved in the Jewish nonprofit world through my work with Hillel and volunteering with Moishe House’s Mem Global community.

Some fun facts are: I’m a Yoga Alliance Certified Instructor, I’ve traveled to 14 countries, and I’m a big Kabbalah enthusiast. If you're curious, let’s grab coffee and I’d love to read your cards!

I’m really looking forward to helping others discover the beauty, meaning, and magic of Israel through travel, conversation, and connection. Israel is my favorite country I’ve been to, and I hope you’ll get to find out why for yourself. Let’s make it an amazing year together!
