Rabbi David Castiglione
received his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of
California, Santa Cruz and his Masters of Hebrew Letters from Hebrew Union College- Jewish
Institute of Religion in Cincinnati and was ordained in 1992.
Following ordination, Rabbi Castiglione served Temple B'nai Israel of Elmira, New York. Four
years later, his service continued with Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. In both
communities, Rabbi Castiglione established many congregational firsts, including work with
other faith groups and Jewish denominations. Now, after serving twelve years in
Michigan, Rabbi Castiglione joins Temple Adat Shalom in Poway, as the congregation's next
senior rabbi.
Rabbi Castiglione has long been a vocal proponent of outreach, an active advocate of civil
and religious rights for all individuals and an impassioned teacher of texts and traditions
as windows into our lives and directives for our growth.
While still in college, Rabbi Castiglione met and married his wife Adrienne. Together they
are the parents of four boys, one of whom still lives at home and attends a local high school.
