I’m honored to receive the award, but I see this recognition as something bigger than me. The legacy of my great-grandparents, grandparents and parents continues to inspire my commitment to the Jewish community, at home, in our region, and in Israel. Throughout my life, my family’s involvement in Federation and our synagogue has taught me the importance of continuity for our future generations. That’s how I think about it when I look at my own children.

We give as a family through our family business; however, it’s not because of a certain recognition level or designation. We give because it is simply what we do.
I was very proud to lead JFGI during its Annual Campaign when we exceeded our goal. I am fulfilled and gratified when I can work alongside so many people advocating for our Jewish community, Judaism, and the state of Israel.
