DR. CINDY DOLGIN, EdD

DIRECTOR OF MEMBERSHIP AND DATA

Cindy’s personal mission statement is, “I am a servant of K’lal Yisrael.” Her first career, in Israel, was in database management and systems analysis, in banking and high tech. Her long and fulfilling second career, in New York, has been in Jewish education, teaching children, teachers, and adult learners, and leading departments, curriculum development projects, divisions, and schools. Cindy is proud to have served for seven years as Head of School of a K-12 Jewish Day School, Schechter School of Long Island. At Hebrew at the Center, Cindy utilizes her skills in both database management and Jewish/Hebrew education and leadership.

In addition to being certified in Systems Design and Analysis by the Sivan Institute in Tel Aviv, Cindy holds a BA in Economics/Management Information Systems and Near Eastern Studies from University of Michigan, an MA in Jewish Education from the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, and a doctorate in Religion and Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. Cindy began learning Hebrew in earnest while in college, studied for one year at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and over the years returned again and again to Ulpan to become fluent and proficient in Biblical, Rabbinic and modern Hebrew.

In her spare time, Cindy teaches Hebrew, studies Daf Yomi, tends to her garden, creates new recipes in her kitchen, and delights in the company of her husband, children and grandchildren, in Huntington, New York.
