Northeast FL

I am a Lion of Judah because I believe in the power of philanthropy to change lives. I have seen, felt, and lived the impact of what happens when we show up for one another. For me, this is not just about giving, but about responsibility and a lifelong commitment to our people.

For more than 30 years, I have stood alongside our Federation community and witnessed how collective generosity strengthens Jewish life here in Northeast Florida, in Israel, and in more than 70 countries around the world. I carry with me the stories of those whose resilience, courage, and hope inspire us all, especially in moments of challenge and uncertainty when we must lean in even more.

I am a Lion of Judah because I want to lead by example, inspire others to join me, and help secure a vibrant Jewish future for generations to come. I proudly say, Hineni-here I am!
