Born and raised in Miami, Florida, he studied at Harvard University before coming to Israel, becoming a Rabbi and teaching at Ohr Somayach Yeshiva. He is married to Hamutal and they have 12 children.

It is a pleasure for me to work in a place where the management are personally invested in the residents’ quality of life and demonstrate phenomenal sensitivity to their needs.”
