Shuli Karkowsky (she/her/hers) is the Chief Executive Officer at Moving Traditions. Shuli has extensive experience in non-profit management, including at legacy institutions like UJA-Federation of New York, and at innovative start-ups like 70 Faces Media and Hazon. She joined the nonprofit world after litigating at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison. Shuli graduated summa cum laude from the University of Maryland and from Harvard Law School. She is a notoriously voracious reader and eater, consuming nearly all variety of books and food with gusto. Shuli lives in Westchester with her husband and three children, all of whom are so deliciously adorable that they, too, face constant risk of being consumed. Shuli’s first gift to AJWS came out of one of her very first paychecks at a full-time job: Making a decision that felt so aligned with deeply-held internal values and her Jewish identity might still be one of the most adult things she’s ever done.
