Michael Palmer

Development & Engagement Associate
(he/they)

Michael was raised in Birmingham, Alabama, escaped to Salt Lake City, Utah, and just moved to Chicago. Prior to Mishkan, Michael worked in film, directing an independent feature and a variety of commercials, short films, and music videos. Michael has always been passionate about Jewish life, serving in just about every role from religious school teacher to shofar blower to community service chair of local Jewish organizations. Outside of work, Michael enjoys watching movies (big surprise), rock climbing, and local eateries, so please recommend any of your favorites!
