Rabbi Shalom Yona Weis is a dynamic, inspirational, humorous and engaging speaker that has spoken for organizations, schools, universities and institutions on a variety of topics and to audiences of various sizes and affiliations all around the world.

Rabbi Weis received his semicha from Yeshivas Shor Yoshuv where he studied for over 7 years. Rabbi Weis started his teaching career in HALB at the young age of 19 and quickly built a name as a warm, caring and energetic Rabbi with unique ability to connect to all students but especially those that "didn't fit the mold."

Presently, Rabbis Weis lives with his wife and 4 children in Woodmere, NY and is an active, long standing member of Congregation Aish Kodesh as well as being involved in other community organizations such as serving on the board of Madraigos and Tsedek. He spent 4 years as an Outreach Director for college campuses in Queens and Long Island for Aish HaTorah, NY, teaching as many as 5 weekly classes at a time including one popular, live, on line class for his students from across the globe. Combining his life experiences, chassidic philosophy and human psychology gleaned under the close tutelage of Rabbi Moshe Weinberger shlita (Rav of Congregation Aish Kodesh, Woodmere, NY) and his natural warmth, and wit, Rabbi Weis' guidance has helped thousands find meaning, pleasure and beauty in their Jewish identities.
