Cindy grew up in Highland Park, IL where she gained a love of Judaism through involvement in youth group functions and summer camp in Wisconsin. She came to St. Louis to attend Washington University as an undergrad and quickly made roots in the local Jewish community. She pursued her Master's degree in Education at Harvard University and returned to St. Louis, when she began her career as an educator. During the span of her 16 years as a high school English teacher, Cindy taught at MICDS, Grand Center Arts Academy and Notre Dame High School. Her guiding principle in education is that "nothing unconnected ever occurs" which drives her to seek learning from anywhere and anyone. Along with her husband Josh and children Jacob and Ella, Cindy enjoys seeking out adventures and festivals in the St. Louis area.
