Maribeth Kraus - Trustee
Temple Sinai is my Sinai because it is a community whose clergy nourishes me spiritually and emotionally, where I am challenged intellectually, and where I feel welcome and at home.
My husband Andy and I joined Temple Sinai shortly after I converted to Judaism and it has been our spiritual home ever since. I have served on several committees, most notably the 2021 Virtual Gala Committee, and have participated in many temple activities, especially those offered by Friend of a Friend. I am honored to serve as Secretary for the next two years.
Professionally, I have an M.A. in Social and Organizational Behavior, am a Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) and an Associate Certified Coach. After a career as the Director of Convention Programs for the Modern Language Association, I am currently a meetings and event specialist/consultant for small- to mid-sized non-profits through my business, MB Kraus Solutions, LLC.
I am a wife and a mom and enjoy many activities with my husband, son, daughter-in-law, and their adorable puppy Willoughby.
