JumpSpark is pleased to announce Nathan Brodsky will lead JumpSpark as our new Director.
As a kid growing up in Sarasota, Florida, I often looked at the copy of The Jewish Book of Why that was prominently displayed in the living room, and I learned at the young age about the importance of asking questions. Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg Sasso says, “At the heart of what it means to be a Jew is to ask questions.” I love connecting with new people by asking open ended questions to learn about their lives.
I am honored to start my new role as Director of JumpSpark, and I plan to often reference the Jewish value of asking questions. Through this, I plan to deepen my understanding of the Atlanta Jewish teen ecosystem, learn about how teens and their parents connect to Israel, and encourage creative problem solving. While we further and sustain JumpSpark’s impact, I look forward to the many questions time will bring and discovering the answers along the way.
Sincerely,
Nathan Brodsky
Director of JumpSpark
