Meet Our Executive Director: Dvora Gila Dusowitz
Dvora Gila is a native of Brooklyn and currently lives in Crown Heights. She is most notably the puppy mama to an adorably fun, snuggly, and mischievous puppy, Sophie!
Gila has a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, Education, and English from Touro College, a Master’s degree in English Education from New York University, and a second Master’s degree in Education Administration from Grand Canyon University. In the past, she’s worked with middle and high school students and will begin her fifth year working with 8th graders in a public middle school in Brooklyn.
When not teaching, Gila is cycling through NY as a former TDS cyclist, photographing nature, spending time with family and friends, or traveling! She’s explored eleven countries and twenty-four US states but plans to reach all fifty one day. One of her favorite aspects of traveling is researching a location, planning the trip, and seeing it come to fruition. Gila is excited by learning and exploring a new country’s culture, history, language, geography, and people and notes that it is immeasurably rewarding to share her passion for travel and education with others and spark that excitement in them as well!
