Sage (They/He) is the Jews of Color Program Manager at Keshet. Born and raised in Miami Beach, Sage comes from a Modern Orthodox background as a Black, queer and trans individual. As an outspoken member of the LGBTQ+ community, Sage has a keen interest in topics such as gender; sexuality, resilience, and best practices for creating and fostering a culture of belonging with high levels of psychological safety for historically marginalized groups. Sage feels so honored and blessed to be exactly who they are and aims to be the person they needed when they were younger.
As Keshet’s JOC Program Manager, entrusted with creating resources and spaces that uplift, amplify, and celebrate the lived experiences of LGBTQ+ Jews of Color, I saw an opportunity to elevate these stories.
