My name is Devo (short for Devorah) Klein, I was born in Baltimore, MD, and moved to Israel in 2006 when I was 5-years-old. Since I was a young girl, I always loved writing, and throughout high school, it became a creative outlet for me. After graduating high school, I began working for the incredible organization United Hatzalah as my national service. I was involved in many media-related campaigns and events, but for the most part, I wrote over 100 articles, some of which were published in publications like the Jerusalem Post, JNS, and Yeshiva World News. The stories were mostly life-saving stories, like successful CPRs, rescue missions, and labor. After talking to so many volunteers and writing their stories, I decided to start volunteering myself. And so, in September 2021, I received my EMT certificate and began volunteering.

Today, I am a student at Bar Ilan University, studying Communication and English Literature. I still volunteer when I can, but when I'm not in school, I work as the commissioner and field manager of a few flag football leagues under AFI. I still write often, around 2 papers a week for my literature major, but now this blog will come back to life, following the request of my journalism professor.
