Maggid Jhos Singer is a professional Jewish educator, writer, and speaker. He is an out transman, a parent of three, devoted spouse, craft cocktail mixologist, neophyte straight razor shaving nerd, and a skillful home chef. He relishes engaging in Jewish text study, hiking, and facilitating spiritual experiences for his flock, students, and friends. With his wife, the lovely Julie Batz (see cohort 2) he spent over two decades in service as a congregational leader. Some might call him a rabbi, but his official title is Maggid, having been ordained as such by Rabbi Gershon Winker in 2002. Currently, he serves the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco where he is the Rosh Yeshiva for QueerCore Talmud and Original Ink—SVARA-method batei midrash exploring Talmud and Torah. For good measure, he earned his MA in Jewish Studies at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley some years ago. His work can be found in Torah Queeries, Balancing on the Mechitza, and at SVARA and ELItalks.
