Andy: Here's my bio from the Temple Emanuel website (www.tegreensboro.org): Rabbi Andy Koren is a native of North Miami, Florida. As a college student at Tufts University, Rabbi Koren majored in International Relations and focused on Middle Eastern Studies and Israeli Foreign Policy. He was also active in Hillel on the local, regional, and national levels. Rabbi Koren has been to Israel many times since first traveling there as a student on the Alexander Muss High School in Israel program. In 1993 Rabbi Koren received his ordination from the Hebrew Union College – Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati. For his first 10 years as a Rabbi, he worked primarily with the campus Jewish community, as the Director of North Carolina Hillel and as the Campus Rabbi for the Hillel at the University of Florida. He also spent three years in Columbus, Ohio as the Program Associate for the Wexner Foundation. In 2003, Rabbi Koren took his first congregational position as the Rabbi/Director of Religious Education for Temple Emanuel in Greensboro, North Carolina where he currently lives with his wife Michal and their children Avishai & Shiri.
