Born and raised in Dunedin, Florida, to an American Jewish family, I am the first Israeli citizen. I was active in leadership roles in the Zionist Pluralistic Youth Movement "Young Judaea" for many years, where I held regional, local and international leadership roles and alumni of Camp Judaea. I made Aliyah to Israel in 2005 after a "Gap Year" or Shnat Sherut in Israel.

I served from 2005-2008 in 101st IDF Paratrooper Recon Battalion, and I am currently a Lieutenant in the 55th Paratrooper Division,28 Battalion(Res.).

Since 2015, I lead our Partnership programs between Ramat HaNegev and our Partnership community abroad.  Including programs for teens, young adults, senior citizens through varied and engaging initiatives whose goal is to create a collective and robust future for generations to come, learn, and grow together.

Today, I am a "Chever" or member of Kibbutz Revivim (the first community in the Negev, 1943) with my partner and 3 beautiful children. I am a member of the Board of Directors of Kibbutz Revivim and Absorption Committee. I am an avid trail runner and hiker, and I enjoy biking, camping with family and friends, swimming, and building projects out of recycled materials.
