Michael Grinker - President

Michael has been a member of CEEBJ since returning to Milwaukee with Sharon in 1993. Shortly thereafter, Michael and Sharon were blessed with Shira and Ezra, both of whom were named, and later celebrated b’nei mitzvot at CEEBJ. Michael grew up in the congregation at the Kenwood Boulevard location, where the Grinker and Gronauer families go back three more generations. He studied in Israel after high school, and received his BA at Kenyon College, and later an MBA at UW-Milwaukee.

Michael has been running the family business, Sid Grinker Restoration, since 2010. Serving until recently as Treasurer, he has also been active on the Building, Finance, and Buildings and Grounds Committees. When Michael is not working, parenting, or serving, he enjoys skiing, paddling, or looking forward his next triathlon.
