Shaked Ram - Jewish Agency Israel Fellow
Shaked joins the Hillel Milwaukee staff as part of the Israel Fellows program, a collaboration between Hillel International and the Jewish Agency for Israel that places outstanding young Israeli professionals on key North American campuses to serve as peer ambassadors to the campus community.
Shaked was born in Petach-Tikva and raised in Matan, a small town in the center of Israel. Shaked served two years in the IDF (Israel’s Defense Forces) as a commander of courses at the Logistics Force. During her service in the IDF, Shaked took part in Taglit-Birthright, with students from The University of Pennsylvania.
Shaked has a Bachelor's Degree in Education, majoring in At-Risk Youth and Special Education from Beit Berl College. Shaked studied abroad for one semester in Krakow, Poland. While being there she found herself connecting to the Jewish community, taking part in community events and learning more about the diversity of Judaism. For the last year-and-a-half, Shaked was working as a youth coordinator in a youth center in Oranit (a small town in the center of Israel).
While having experience in a variety of fields education, Shaked feels that being in Milwaukee, working with the Jewish community and especially the students, is an amazing experience, as she moves through a personal journey to re-discover her Jewish and Israel identity.
When Shaked is not at Hillel, you can find her exploring the area, reading, baking, watching movies and having fun with friends! Shaked hopes to strengthen students relationship with Israel through taking the students to Israel and bringing Israel on campus (she is always available for coffee or questions), so make sure to say Shalom if you see her!
