Hi! Adina Schreiber here, Rockport career consultant.

I’m passionate about liking the work you do each day! As someone who spent years dreading going to work, I know all-too-well the feeling of being in a mismatched job.

It took courage to finally say goodbye to my pricey masters degree in speech pathology and jump into a different field.

For the past 2.5 years, I’ve been working as a recruiter, and I love what I do! I love getting to know people – their strengths, motivations, and priorities.

I am excited to use these skills to help people make smart decisions about work. Finding the right career is like a puzzle.

Let’s solve it together!!

My name is Aharon Gaffen, from Chicago, IL.

My background is in Education and I have more than a decade of experience in High School Administration.

I have a M.Ed. from Loyola University Chicago and I am a Rockport Institute Pathfinder Assessment Coach.

I am an outgoing “people person” and in my career in Education, I have enjoyed many opportunities to help people find their niche and help them succeed in life and I am excited to use that to help others, as well. I can meet with clients both in-person or virtually.

Hi there :) I'm Aleah Cohen, and I believe everyone has a superpower.
People who find the deepest fulfilment and satisfaction in life are the ones that discover it and unleash it to its full potential.
My goal is for every exceptional, talented, busy frum woman of today to get a chance to access this gift for herself and live the empowering, vitality-infused life that it brings.
I especially like to focus on young women, early in their careers because I get it... the expectations on today's young women are demanding, confusing, and overwhelming.

I know because I've been there too.
And I so would of have appreciated the insight that a career coach offers.
After finishing my bachelor's in Psychology from the University of Florida, I was unsure where to go from there (sound familiar?).
The choices were so broad, and I felt so alone in weighing each one.
Eventually I found my way to Rockport institute, where it dawned on me that common career guidance methodology is inherently flawed!
It can't be that every frum woman should become a OT/Speech Therapist/ Social Worker/ fill-in-the-blank with whatever everyone is doing these days.... and unfortunately, many get swept along in these 'average' paths that don't pan out because they are not tailored to their specific strengths, needs, and values.
Everyone is so unique- that should be the starting point!

Want to work with me?
I'd love to give you the space to spread your wings, and transform yourself into the show-stopping butterfly you always knew you were!

Hi I’m David Weinberger of Manchester N.J.

I’m a Rockport Institute Career Consultant in training.

I’ve been in the Healthcare industry for a number of years and currently am the Executive Director of a Substance Abuse Rehab facility.

You may ask why would someone with a busy full time occupation and many years in the Healthcare industry be working simultaneously as a career consultant? And that’s a great question! Let me explain.

Throughout my years working alongside and managing many employees I’ve always been fascinated by the ambition, drive and desire to succeed that so many possess and display especially early on in their work.

Yet I’ve been equally amazed by the subsequent drop off, burnout and lack of satisfaction often displayed not long after by the same employees.

I not only noticed it in others but I experienced in my own journey as well. I developed a passion for helping people, both new to the workforce looking for their first opportunity, as well as high functioning executives who were feeling stuck or unfulfilled. By being able to identify who they were at their core and aligning their work responsibilities with their natural interests and inborn skills, I’ve been able to guide many individuals as well as many of my own employees in the direction of success that’s unique to them.

That’s the secret. That’s the truth.

The secret to success is YOU.

We just have to get to know ourselves really well, know our strengths and weaknesses and find careers and job responsibilities that align with who we are at are core.

We’re all unique.

We all can be successful in our own work and ENJOY that success at the same time. I look forward to working with you and discovering what it is that makes you uniquely you.

Hi, I'm Dina Meisels, a Rockport Institute Pathfinder Assessment Coach based in Toronto, ON.

I offer sessions both in-person and via Zoom, specializing in helping individuals who are either entering the workforce or feeling stuck and dissatisfied in their current careers.

I started out like many of my friends, with a degree focused on working with the elderly population.

Then COVID-19 hit, and I found myself at a crossroads. Somehow, I discovered a job in recruiting six years ago and have been passionate about it ever since.

I absolutely love what I do and want others to experience the same excitement about going to work!

I firmly believe that no part of a person's journey is wasted. Every path you take provides more clarity and knowledge about where you want to go.

My approach is easy-going and low-pressure, ensuring that you feel supported and guided rather than stressed.

I want you to know that you've done your best with your experience and education until now, and I'm here to help you move forward.

Hi. I am Mindy Rosenberg from MR Consulting in Monsey, N.Y, and I’m available to see clients in person or remotely via zoom or phone.

In my tenure as school principal for over two decades, I’ve had the honor and privilege of counseling hundreds of students, teachers, and parents to strategize their strengths, overcome obstacles and achieve success far beyond the classroom. My solution oriented approach to capitalize on “the glass- half FULL...” as well as identify and map out game plans for potential pitfalls, have helped many achieve significant milestones they may not even have considered before.

In addition, my personal life experiences both as a mother of children with special needs, as well as a bereaved parent, have gifted me with special tools to foster resilience and a growth mindset and accomplish meaningful goals despite hardship and challenge.

As a Rockport Institute Pathfinder Assessment coach and career consultant in training who is warm, intuitive and inquisitive, I am excited to harness my rich experiences, my passion to empower others and my keen penchant for diagnostic and analytical reasoning to unlock the fascinating puzzle pieces of your unique personality, perspectives and past, along with the data of the Pathfinder Assessment.

Together we can create a career path designed for success and fulfillment, tailor made especially for you...

Whether you are a young adult starting out, a seasoned employee (or employer!) seeking a better career fit or role change within your workplace or company, an older adult at a crossroads or midlife “comeback” considering to re-enter the workforce, I look forward to working with you!

I grew up in Atlanta in a Kollel Family and learned in Ner Yisroel, Philly, R’ Sholom Shechter and BMG.

In 2011 I moved to Minneapolis from Lakewood to join the Kollel, where I’m currently the Menahel. In my position with the Kollel here, I have counselled many of our yungeleit into finding appropriate “shtellers” and jobs in various cities around the country.

I specialize in “Yeshivaleit” who are currently leaving Kollel or who have recently left Kollel.

I have an extensive network in Kollel communities around the country and I have an acute awareness and hands-on experience in Chinuch, Rabbanus, Askanus, Community administration as well as business ownership, marketing, and fundraising.

So, if you’re currently or recently left Kollel and are looking for parnassah that fits with your identity, lifestyle, and skillset, text me or email me.

My name is Sarah Korman. As a Rockport Institute Career Consultant in training, I use the Pathfinder Assessment to help people choose a career or job in which they can excel and which they will also look forward to every day.

As someone who graduated with a masters degree in her 20's and went straight into a 15 plus year career as a speech therapist only to discover that isn’t what I really want to do for the rest of my life, my goal is to help others in that situation find their dream job/career even after having spent many years at a job or in a profession and now have no idea what they want to do because all they know is what they’ve been doing.

I would also love to help recent graduates figure out where they would shine and what type of career/job they would enjoy to hopefully avoid ending up later in life feeling they made a mistake and now need to find something new.

Whether you are young and would like some guidance before committing to an extensive education or choosing a job to devote yourself to, or you are more mature and are looking for a career change, I can help guide you on your path to job fulfillment and success.
