Rabbi Jade Sank Ross

Rabbi Jade Sank Ross grew up in Kinnelon, New Jersey, where she spent the majority of her days divided between the local stables riding horses and her Jewish home, Barnert Temple, in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey. It was because of her involvement at Barnert Temple and because of the mentorship of Rabbi Elyse Frishman, Cantor Regina Lambert-Hayut, and Director of Lifelong Learning Sara Losch that Rabbi Sank Ross discovered her calling as a rabbi.

Rabbi Sank Ross received her BA in anthropology and international and global studies from Brandeis University, where she was also a member of the a cappella group Company B. She was ordained as a rabbi in 2018 by the Hebrew Union College–Jewish Institute of Religion in New York, where she earned awards for her achievements in homiletics and human relations.
 
Having previously served under her mentor Rabbi Howard Goldsmith as the assistant rabbi and director of education at Congregation Emanu- El of Westchester in Rye, New York, Rabbi Sank Ross currently serves the Community Synagogue in Port Washington, New York.
 
Rabbi Sank Ross is passionate about cooking and baking. This passion, combined with her love of Jewish learning and community, has led her to contribute to three Jewish Food Hero cookbooks by Kenden Alfond. Rabbi Sank Ross is married to Rabbi Daniel Ross, and together they are most proud to be Adina and Bella’s parents.
