KOL MEVASER BLOG

ELIANA LIPSKY & CHAIM KIRBY Chaim Kirby and Eliana Lipsky arrived 10 months ago by way of Houston, Boston, Chicago and Israel. They moved here to be near family and are loving that their backyard is adjacent to Eliana’s sister and brother-in-law, Shira and Danny Schwartz, and that

their children play together as often as possible. Chaim Kirby is a software architect for Commonwealth Informatics and Eliana is the Middle School Principal at CESJDS. They have four boys, Amichai (5), Eitan (3), and 13.5 month old twins Shai and Matanel. Though the boys were not born here they are excited to have such a great community in which to play and grow up. As a family they love to explore campgrounds, museums, adventure parks, and more. They cannot wait to explore the Greater Washington area!

Chaim and Eliana hope to become more involved at KMS once they are no longer knee deep in diaper changes and nap time. In particular, Eliana loves participating in Women’s Tefilla groups on every occasion. When asked what Chaim and Eliana like most about KMS, they said, “Hands down, the community. We have never been so welcomed so quickly into any other community the way we were welcomed into the KMS community. It really felt like we were coming home.”
