Tani Zarelli, wife of WA State Senator Joseph Zarelli, is an internationally-known expert on the state of Israel.  Several years ago she spearheaded an annual US event called the “Convergence Conference,” which features prominent US and Israeli dignitaries and speakers, educating Americans about the need for a strong relationship between America and Israel.  Tani hosts groups of Americans on tours of Israel several times a year, hitting all of the cultural, historical and civic-political stops.  Tani also has unique relationships with Israeli businesspeople and has assisted American and Israeli business leaders in finding new business opportunities, strengthening the economic ties between the two countries. 

 

Tani believes that too few Americans really understand what is at stake in the Middle East, and one of her goals is to help them understand the Arab-Israeli conflict and how it relates to the American way of life.  Her passion is to see people connect to the Land and People of Israel, preparing them to come back to the US and be a spokesperson for Israel.  She has said that as a result of her work, she sees lives changed over and over.
