Founder

Yoram founded Jvillage Network based upon his belief in the importance of strengthening our Jewish communities. He has put his passion to practice by serving as president of Ohavi Zedek Synagogue in Burlington, Vermont and as co-chair of the synagogue’s long-range strategic visioning and planning process. Yoram is also the co-founder of the Israel Center of Vermont, a non-profit organization through which those passionate – or just curious – about Israel can share their ideas, enhance their ties to Israel and learn from one another.

In addition to serving Jewish communities, Yoram is the managing director of Kelliher Samets Volk, a branding firm with offices in Burlington, Boston and New York City that specializes in digital marketing solutions. He brings to Jvillage Network more than 30 years of experience helping businesses and organizations reach and engage their clients and members. A visionary entrepreneur, Yoram has launched successful businesses in the entertainment industry and has been involved with the launch of many other profitable businesses.

Born in Israel, Yoram came to the United States as a child and was raised in upstate New York. He found his way to Burlington and its vibrant Jewish community in the '70s. Yoram is married to Linda Kelliher, KSV's founder and chief creative officer.
