Based in lower Westchester County, Sally has been learning and teaching Jewish topics in communications since 2010. Of special interest have been Mussar, meditation, Wise Aging, and Hasidic thought.

Happily married for 40 years, Sally and Bruce are the parents of four sons and two perfect granddaughters.

V'hayu hadevarim ha'eleh...al levavecha. And these words shall be...upon your heart. Deuteronomy 6:6 Have you ever wondered which words? There are approximately 600,000 words in the Torah, but which are the words we shall place upon our heart? Please join Sally for a conversation about the practice of Mussar: one of the many paths of our Torah that provides focus on certain words to hold close to our hearts.
