Kayla Heering is married to Eitan Heering; they have three children: twins, Ezra, and Lia, 3, and Aviv, seven months old.

Heering earned a B.S. in kinesiology and B.A. in Jewish Studies from the University of Maryland, and a doctorate of physical therapy from George Washington University.

Day-to-day activities for Heering working for the Jewish Fertility Foundation (JFF) include helping to organize all the programming in Atlanta for JFF, including support groups, educational programs, and community events.

“I also help run their grant program in Atlanta,” she said. “My family time is spent outdoors as much as possible, including going for walks, hikes, and exploring local parks. My family also enjoys being members of Ohr Hatorah synagogue and spending our weekends participating in their youth programs. My hobbies are spending time with family, hiking, and drinking coffee.”
