Originally from St. Louis, Phil came to Austin to attend The University of Texas McCombs School of Business. After devoting a large part of her career to recruiting in Dallas/Fort Worth at a Texas hedge fund and later at Goldman Sachs, she moved back to Austin in 2015.

Phil has been inspired to dedicate the majority of her time to Shalom Austin. Although all facets of Shalom Austin are vital, she is especially passionate about Women’s Philanthropy and legacy giving, as an endowed Forever Lion. Phil feels honored to serve on the Shalom Austin Board and Executive Committee and as Philanthropy Committee Chair. Additionally, Phil is excited about her upcoming term as Shalom Austin Board Chair.

Besides her commitment to the Jewish community, Phil is also privileged to be a Board Member of Fertility Foundation of Texas.

A proud mom of two young sons, Phil enjoys trying new recipes, CrossFit light, and listening to audiobooks.
