Man, I say this a lot and I know it comes across standoffish, but... US ethnic categorizations seem bonkers to me.
What does "half Jewish half Irish" even mean? Isn't that a Jewish person from Ireland? That would count as fully both things. What are the other two halves?
This is why I have to think about the immigration form for ten minutes each time I get through customs in the US, it's all "was any of your grandparents a smurf?" and "are you latino and/or lactose intolerant?" and stuff like that. It makes no sense.
I think the confusing part is that Jewish is considered by most people to be both a religion and an ethnicity.
Yeah I'm still not sure about that.
I think it's an ethnic group with a religion and sometimes a non ethnic person join them?
It's an ethnic group and a religion. The vast majority of the religious group is from the ethnic group because they usually don't try to convert people. Her note about being secular indicates she is part of the ethnic group but not part of the relegious group.

James? How’s the giant peach been?
You need to find an old British children's book that could be about you. Then, maybe?
