In this week’s episode of the Gay City News podcast “Thank You For Coming Out,” creator and host Dubbs Weinblatt (they/ them) welcomes Jaimie Krass (she/her).
With anti-oppressive pedagogy and a love of adventure as her modi operandi, Jaimie serves as Keshet’s President & CEO. Prior to stepping into the role of CEO, Jaimie served as Keshet’s Director of Youth Programs for five years, bringing boundless energy to the holy work of building a more just, affirming, and celebratory world for LGBTQ+ Jewish youth. Outside of work, Jaimie enjoys starting every day with a double espresso, collecting queer graphic t-shirts, seeing as much theatre as she can, and simultaneously complaining about NYC while also insisting it is the greatest city in the world.
She is a dedicated volunteer with The Trevor Project, a proud Pardes alumna, and a member of the Schusterman ROI Community. She lives in New York with her wife and their dog, MishMish.
Listen in to our latest incredible conversation about the vulnerable and often hilarious stories of coming out.
