Adira Rosen

Jewish Life Specialist

Pronouns: she/hers Somerville, MA

Adira Rosen serves as our Jewish Life Specialist supporting community builders in North America. Apart from this work, she is a Jewish theatre artist who loves to make Jewish spaces more theatrical and theatrical spaces more Jewish. In her free time, Adira loves to take dance classes, see theatre, and passively learn to play the banjo.

She was born and raised in San Diego, CA, but has found homes in Pittsburgh, Tel Aviv, New York City, Jerusalem, and Boston–where she is in Rabbicincal School at Hebrew College. She became rabbi-curious as a participant at the Brandeis Camp Institute in 2021 and followed that curiosity all the way to Pardes in Jerusalem where she completed a year of study in the Pardes Experiential Educators Program.

No matter the location or time of day, Adira can be found wearing sunglasses on her head, which a friend once lovingly called her California kippah.
