Xani is a Kindergarten teacher out in Washington DC at MILTON Jewish Day School. She is originally from the North Shore of Chicago (go Cubs!) and Washington, D.C. became my home after I graduated from the University of Hartford with a degree in Elementary/Special Education and Judaic Studies and a masters in Special Education. My passion for teaching grew during my 15 years at Jewish overnight camps, Olin-Sang-Ruby-Union Institute in Oconomowc, WI and URJ Kutz Camp in Warwick, NY. It continued to expand while working at Congregation Kol Haverim during my four years as the youth director and special education coordinator. I also taught at the Washington DCJCC preschool and was the Director of Family Engagement. During the school year I teach both Hebrew and Religious School at Temple Shalom in Chevy Chase, and also the Early Childhood Curriculum and Instruction Specialist and Youth Director. When I am not at teaching, you can find me eating at Sticky Fingers Vegan Bakery, swimming, camping in Shenandoah, and exploring DC with my husband Josh.
