She has a Bachelor’s of Science in Music Education from New York University, a Master’s of Music in Choral Conducting from California State University, Los Angeles, and has ordinations as a Cantor through the American Seminary for Contemporary Judaism, and as a Rabbi through Jewish Spiritual Leaders Institute. Diane returned to seminary to deepen her Jewish knowledge at the Academy for Jewish Religion – CA, and is nearly finished with a Masters of Jewish Studies degree with a focus in Music in Jewish Life.

Ayfo Oree (Where is My Light?)
Where is my light? My light is in me.
Where is my hope? My hope is in me.
Where is my strength? My strength is in me.
And in you.
AY-FO O-REE? O-REE BEE.
AY-FO TIK-VA-TEE? TIK-VA-TEE BEE.
AY-FO KO-KHEE? KO-KHEE BEE.
