Ty grew up in Boca Raton, Florida, where he attended Katz Yeshiva High School before spending two years learning at Gush Etzion. He then earned a degree in Computer Science from Princeton University. Following graduation, Ty spent a meaningful year working at SAR High School as a Beit Midrash fellow, an opportunity he deeply cherished. This past year, he returned to Gush to learn in the Kollel Halacha program. His passion for education and desire to serve as a JLIC couple stems from his formative experiences in Bnei Akiva as a teenager, both serving as a Madrich in Boca Raton and particularly through his experiences as a camper and counselor at Camp Stone, as well as his teaching role at SAR. He maintains a close relationship with the JLIC couple from his time on campus and views this opportunity as a way to pay forward the impact they had on his life.
Rivka grew up in Cedarhurst, New York, and attended SKA for high school before spending a year learning at Migdal Oz. She then attended Stern College, where she double majored in English Literature and Judaic Studies while becoming deeply involved in YU’s student newspaper, The Commentator, ultimately serving as editor-in-chief during her senior year. She served as Rosh Beit Midrash at Camp Stone for two summers and has always been drawn to learning and teaching. This year she returned to Migdal Oz to study in their Kollel program and currently works as an editor at 18Forty. Together, Ty and Rivka share a long-standing interest in joining JLIC, driven by their love for people and Torah.
