Jen Weil – Bet

Jen is very excited to begin her fifth year teaching 2nd grade religious school at Temple Beth Ami.  As a child, Jen attended religious school, had her Bat Mitzvah and had her Confirmation all here at Temple Beth Ami, and she is thrilled to now teach here and have her own children go through the program. Jen has a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Haverford College in Pennsylvania, and a law degree from the University of Virginia. For many years she practiced public interest law, and then she made the decision to stay home with her children. Having children with food intolerances, Jen developed a passion for nutrition particularly children’s nutrition. This passion led her to return to school and do coursework in holistic nutrition. She is now working as a holistic health coach, working with individual clients and teaching classes for individuals at risk for developing diabetes. Jen lives in Gaithersburg with her husband Mike and her three sons Jacob, Zachary and Nathan.
