Danielle Selber

Meet Danielle!

March 2, 2019 by Danielle Selber

Girl blowing a kiss in front of mosaicName: Danielle Selber

My job at Tribe 12: Assistant Director

…But really, I’d describe my role as: Wearing another hat as ‘in-house matchmaker‘ and connecting like-minded people to each other for dating

Favorite mitzvah: I get a major thrill from returning lost objects

Weirdest thing on my desk: Rubber duck holding a dreidel

The least Jewish thing about me is… a deep and unrelenting hatred for pickles

Side hustle: I write those little stocking-stuffer kits you see at the bookstore checkout line

Nerdiest hobby: I was a nationally-ranked Scrabble player for a while

Meet Ross!

February 18, 2019 by Danielle Selber

Guy giving two thumbs up in front of a mosaicName: Ross Berkowitz

My job at Tribe 12: CEO

…But really, I’d describe my role as: I love and believe in Tribe 12. I make it go.

Silly event idea: Treyf (non-kosher) food crawl!!

If I didn’t live in Philly I’d live in…Toronto. I have a lot of good friends there and love the town — except that it gets even colder than here

Jewish holiday I could celebrate everyday: Passover — not the food restrictions (I do not do that now) but the focus on family and learning together is beautiful

Favorite Jewish food: Shwarma and mallawach

Nerdiest hobby: I collected comic books for MANY years — and still like to go to Barnes and Noble when I can to read graphic novels

Meet Davinica!

January 29, 2019 by Danielle Selber

Young professional poses with tongue out and peace sign in front of a mosaic wallName: Davinica Nemtzow

My job at Tribe 12: LGBTQIA+ Coordinator

…But really, I’d describe my role as: Creating a safe space with super chill events for the queer Jewish community

Favorite mitzvah: Hosting guests! My life goal is to be the perfect blend of Ina Garten and Jeff Goldblum. If you don’t organically have the eccentric energy of a God of Chaos, storebought is fine.

If I didn’t live in Philly I’d live… In Portland, Maine or Tzfat, Israel

Side hustle: I’m the founder/executive director of a charitable online art gallery called Creating United Empowerment

The least Jewish thing about me is… My mom’s an Irish Buddhist and her parents are Baptists in New Mexico!

After Tribe 12 I might… Travel the world learning from native cultures about their use of medicinal plants for my newest painting series!

…But really, I’d describe my role as: Helping people take their idea, hopes, dreams, side hustle, etc to the next level

Weirdest thing on my desk: A cat themed birthday card that sings

Weirdest thing on my desk: A mini gnome carrying a wheelbarrow of sunflowers

Secret superpower: I have disproportionately large feet for the size of my body (I’m 5’2″ and a size 9 shoe)

I’m famous for… Hand modeling! You can find my hands gracing the social media feeds of Subway, Big Gay Ice Cream and Trade Winds Iced Tea

Side hustle: I help small non-profits adopt, integrate and use Salesforce to further their mission
