Join us in welcoming our newest member of our marketing team, Sydni Friedmann. Sydni has been a part of our community for years, and we’re happy to have her back as our Digital Marketing Associate. After graduating from Indiana University, Sydni has returned home to Baltimore to continue being a part of a community that has always meant so much to her. She brings dedication, curiosity, and a passion for showcasing everything the JCC has to offer.
I like to refer to the J as my second home. It has always been a place where I feel supported, comfortable, and free to be myself. I have been an active part of the JCC community for as long as I can remember. From attending preschool and participating in TNT and CIT to serving as an Executive Director of MSLC and a Teen Observer of the JCC Board, the J has been a meaningful part of every stage of my life. This past summer I had the opportunity to work as the J Camps Marketing Coordinator, which further strengthened my desire to continue to work at the J and share what the JCC means to me.
I was always told “You never know unless you try.” Putting yourself out there and being willing to try something new can turn what once was daunting or out of reach into something you are truly passionate about.
Yes! I have two Scottish Terriers who are brothers. I have had Scotties my whole life, but this time my sister and I convinced my parents to let us get two! She wasn’t on board at first, but Scotties are the sweetest dogs. They have a way of providing comfort, even when they’re being little troublemakers. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I couldn’t imagine life without a dog by my side.
I am most excited to be able to showcase everything the JCC has to offer and help people discover that there is something for everyone, no matter who you are or what your interests may be. I am also looking forward to working hands-on with the marketing team, learning new programs, exploring creative ideas, and being a helpful asset to the team.
I am a huge dog person, so I love dog-sitting whenever I get the chance! I am also a big planner and I love to organize just about anything. Organizing gives me a big serotonin boost and something is genuinely enjoy.
From growing up at the J to now helping tell our story, Sydni brings a unique perspective and a genuine connection to our community. We’re excited to have her as part of our marketing team and look forward to all the creativity and enthusiasm she’ll bring to her new role. Welcome back to the J, Sydni!
