After spending the last three years with the Buffalo Jewish Federation, Nicole Bard will be leaving at the end of the month to pursue new professional opportunities and be closer to family downstate.

Nicole began working for Federation as an intern while she was a Senior at UB.  Upon graduation, she was recruited to join the Center for Jewish Engagement and Learning team as a full time professional, where she quickly became an instrumental partner in many critical projects, which included the inaugural Made in Buffalo with Seth Godin, the dynamic Engagement Conference featuring Rabbi Mike Uram, and the first Buffalo Israel Experience trip in 2018.  Over the years, Nicole has also taken the helm of PJ Library, PJ Our Way, and Nickel City Jews, leading in all areas with warmth, generosity, and creativity.

Please join us in wishing Nicole a b’hatzlacha – much luck, success, and happiness in her next set of adventures!
