Meet Yoella and Cameron
November 3, 2025 | People in Our Neighborhood
Meet Yoella Diamant-Cohen and Cameron Morgan, a joyfully married multifaith couple living in Northeast Baltimore. Yoella and Cameron are participating in Reset & Refresh, a program for multifaith young couples to explore Jewish life through the rhythm of Shabbat. Our Reset & Refresh cohort, facilitated by The Network and The Associated’s Young Adult Division (YAD), offers a welcoming space for young multifaith couples to spark meaningful conversations, deepen relationships and build community with other couples on a similar journey. Yoella and Cameron are connecting with peers, diving deeper into Judaism, faith and growth as a couple.
Tell us about yourselves (where you’re from, what do you do, how did you meet, etc.)
Cameron is from Nashville, Tennessee, and Yoella was born in Jerusalem, Israel. Yoella’s immediate family moved to Baltimore in 1998, when she was 6 years old. Cam moved to Baltimore for grad school at MICA in 2018. They currently live in NE Baltimore with two cats and a precious pup, Olive, Pickle and Caper.
Yoella runs her own general contracting/handyperson company, Yo Can Do LLC. Cam works for the Baltimore City Mayor’s Office as a Project Manager on the Innovation Team. Both value that their jobs are hyperlocal, service-oriented and people-focused.
Yoella and Cam met in 2018, the week Cam moved to Baltimore. They started dating in 2019, moved in together in March 2020 (and quickly bunkered down together during the pandemic), and got married in 2022.
What inspired you to join our Reset & Refresh cohort?
Yoella: I’m always looking to grow my community and find my place in the Baltimore Jewish community.
Cam: Being interfaith is something we had talked about when we got married, but now, looking at starting a family, I wanted to revisit those conversations. I was curious how we would share our faith and cultures with others.
What does community mean to you?
Yoella: People who like to do the same stuff and want to do it together: gardening, pickling, playing instruments or even praying.
Cam: I think it’s a group of people who seek something in each other: to learn, to laugh, to grow, to grieve, to experience life with and through one another.
What advice would you give to other couples navigating both multifaith and LGBTQ+ identities in their relationships?
Yoella: Honor all the ways you and your partner are different. Be curious when it comes to your partner’s views or history and be willing to be honest about your own.
Cam: You both come with specific stories of who you are. And while those may not be unique, and you find sameness or understanding. For the moments where you see differently, lean into your love for the other. You, at one point, found everything your person did adorable, irresistible, and wonderful. How can you find that same joy in observing and understanding their rich world?
Where will we find you on the weekends or when not working?
Yoella: We’re always working on a project in our old (almost 100-year-old) house, or at my family’s home in Pikesville or in Owings Mills. We also have a very energetic puppy that keeps us moving.
Cam: Oh, I’m such a homebody. My ideal weekend is sleeping in, going to the diner in our neighborhood, coming home, drawing or making some art, thrifting and finding the cutest (or in Yo’s view, haunted) tchotchke, gardening, and finishing the day eating ice cream with Yo.
