October 7th changed the world, and completely changed mine. My career had been in music: composing, producing, and playing saxophone.

While music has been my life-long passion, the post-10/7 world has ignited in me an equal or greater passion for being Jewish, raising a proudly Jewish family, and fighting for the Jewish people. There is nothing more important to me now than advocating to ensure a greater future.

I cannot rest until I know I did everything I could to inspire, educate, and empower our people, and make the world a better place for my daughter and future generations of Jews. As a descendant of Holocaust survivors, and the son-in-law of an Israeli who fought in the Six Day War, I fully understand that Never Again is NOW.

I am currently writing, teaching, and seeking opportunities to influence educational and political policy.
