Amy Greenbaum

Amy is the Executive Director and Rabbinic Resource of Hillel at Miami University. Amy is an alumna of Miami University ('91) and was very involved in Hillel while a student. She has a Masters degree in Hebrew Letters from Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati. July 2007 begins Amy's third year with Hillel at Miami. Prior to this Amy worked in synagogues and schools in the Jewish community. She teaches REL 101 on the Middletown campus of Miami University as a Visiting Faculty person for the Department of Comparative Religion. Amy's involvement with the local community includes: serving as secretary for the Oxford Community Choice Pantry; serving on the committee of DVASH (Domestic Violence Action Support and Healing) at the Jewish Family Service of Cincinnati; sitting on the advisory board of the CAA for Miami University; and filling in for the Rabbi of Beth Israel Synagogue in Hamilton, Ohio when needed. Amy is very excited to be living and working in Oxford again and enjoys working with students. Her door is always open - to talk about the things happening in your life, do research for a paper, learn about Judaism, find out about Hillel or to just schmooze. Stop in, call (office 513-523-5190, cellular 513-910-9436) or email. She looks forward to meeting you soon. Here's to a GREAT year at Hillel!


Paula Duncan

Paula has worked with Hillel staff and students for nearly 17 years. Her matzah ball soup and brownies (free!) are famous on campus and whenever alumni are back in town they stop by for a taste. Paula has lived in the Oxford area for 30 years. Together with her husband Jeff she has four children- David 25, Jessica 22, Nathan 19, and J.D. 10.


Dave Furman

Dave Furman hails from the Great Northwest, Seattle specifically, and just graduated from Binghamton University (in Upstate New York) with a degree in History and Judaic Studies. He is mildly obsessed with playing and watching sports and has a dog named after Ken Griffey Jr. (who now plays for the Cincy Red, but was a Mariner back in the day). He also loves random facts (like did you know that forest fires move faster uphill then downhill?) and movies (don't ask him what his favorite is, because he has no idea!). Some of his goals for this year are to make Hillel a welcoming and friendly place, to get on campus and hang out with students most of the time, and to create some great, innovative, fun programming. Coming from Seattle, he is a bit of a coffee snob, but he would love to take you out to Starbucks or Kofenya sometime!


Lisa Gadaleta Lisa is the Development Director for Hillel at Miami University.

Lisa's top goal is to expand the Development effort to allow an increase in programs that will meet mission of Hillel; to aid in Jewish students discovering their Jewish identity on their own terms. Program growth will enhance Hillel's image as an accepting, caring “home away from home.”

In 2002, Lisa began fundraising and special event planning for her daughter's high school and has never stopped. Civic involvement is a high priority and she is a volunteer at The Family Resource Center and the Oxford Community Choice Pantry. Lisa and her husband Tony live in Oxford with their Shetland Sheepdog “Zuzu”; their daughter, Elizabeth, is enrolled at Clemson University in South Carolina.
