I married Rabbi Selwyn Franklin in July 1970.
We have had wonderful experiences working with congregations in New York; Denver Colorado; Cape Town, Durban, in Israel and in Sydney Australia.
I volunteered in 1967 during the 6 day war and subsequently completed my BA at Wits and MA at Yeshiva University in New York.
Initially I followed a career in Jewish Education having been the Director of Jewish Studies at Mount Sinai College in Sydney and as well as of the State Zionist Council.
I was appointed as the Executive Director of the Asia-Pacific chapter of the the World Jewish Congress - the Asia Pacific Jewish Association, where I travelled extensively supporting the growth and development of Jewish communities throughout Asia.
I took a career change and subsequently established Gateways Migration with expertise in Australian Immigration Law where I focused on the Israeli Hi Tech expansion into the Asia Pacific region.


At present my husband and I live in both Modi'in, Israel and Sydney.
We are blessed with 4 married children; Allon in New York, Yakir in Israel, Eitan and Riki in Sydney and have 13 grandchildren.
