JCHS Alumna, Class of 2009

Brianna has over eight years of experience in consulting, strategic operations, risk management, and social impact through her experience working at Deloitte, SF startup Plastiq, and most recently at Facebook where she helps design and launch global grant and training programs for nonprofits and community organizers. She grew up in Marin County with her parents and three siblings—including twin brother Jason (Class of ‘09), Paige (Class of ‘14), and Ryan—where she had a wide range of Jewish immersion educational experiences. She attended Brandeis Hillel Day School and was a member at Kol Shofar, but also spent a lot of time at Chabad, went to Camp Newman, went on Aish trips, was a Diller Fellow, led a Birthright Trip, and more. She appreciates how “there are so many ways of expressing one’s Jewish identity and loves that JCHS provides a space for students to explore a diversity of Jewish traditions and affiliations, just as it did for me.”
