Orly Campbell graduated from California State University, Northridge with a BA in Vocal Arts. Prior to beginning her journey at the Academy for Jewish Religion California (AJRCA) she was already a year into her most proud job-being a new mom. Little did she know she would not only complete her Master’s degree with one child, but with three.
Over the last six years, Orly has worked in many different synagogue settings, including her current role as cantorial soloist for Temple Beth Shir Shalom in Santa Monica. It is here that Orly found the perfect mix of liturgy and music. Orly served as a cantorial intern for Temple Akiba, where she taught b’nai mitzvah students as well as adult classes, and had the opportunity to lead several Shabbat services. Orly also interned at Temple Ramat Zion in Northridge, the synagogue she attended as a child.
After being ordained ( back in 2019), Cantor Orly served as Cantor at Temple Beth David for the past 3 years. On July 1st 2023, Cantor Orly Campbell joined the prestigious clergy team as Cantor at Sinai Temple. Cantor Orly hopes to continue to elevate congregants’ spiritual experiences by leading everyday with her head, heart and Neshama.
