Sarah has worked in Jewish preschools, supplementary schools, youth groups, camps, and more. Through LEV, she is following her inner voice to create innovative engagement and education for Jewish families.

Simon Abramov is the Program Coordinator at LEV Children’s Museum. Simon is a human rights advocate and a novice Jewish historian. Born in Brooklyn to two Israeli immigrants, Simon developed a deep and invested interest in Jewish culture and history at an early age. He had the opportunity to explore his passions through his volunteer work at The Brooklyn Jewish Experience Center, the Jewish Club at his high school, Jewish day camp as a counselor, and at Jewish soup kitchens across Brooklyn. As a caretaker, it is natural for him to extend his knowledge of Judaism to children. He graduated in May 2020 from Binghamton University with a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Israel studies, where he was able to reinforce his passions through research, travel, and volunteer work. Through LEV, he is meshing together his love for Judaism and humanity to foster a dynamic and inclusive learning environment for Jewish children.

Heather Drew is the Inclusion Coordinator at LEV Children’s Museum. Heather’s educational philosophy is grounded in the power of education to expand human potential, transform lives, and shape new visions for leading and learning in a diverse and complex world. She has worked in the Broward County educational system for over eight years, supporting children with individualized needs. Heather develops special education programs and advocates for inclusion and diversity. She received her Master’s in Curriculum and Instruction from USF in 2017 and is now in the final semester of her Adolescent Reading and Literacy Education Masters. Although Heather has been recognized by peers, students, and organizations, it is the students’ gains and memories that drive her. Play is the most natural way a child can learn and grow. For Heather, this is a driving force behind her focus to plan, lead, and develop differentiated play experiences tailored to the ability of each child. Through LEV, she is bringing this passion to our Sunday School for children with special needs and to our community at large.
