I'm currently writing my MA thesis in the Department of Learning, Instructing and Teacher Education.  For my research, I'm working on a conceptual analysis of Israel Education (of Diaspora Jewry), mapping out the term's multiple meanings prominent in scholarship.

I have a BA from George Washington University in Middle East Studies and History, with a minor in Judaic Studies, and an MA in Jewish Education from the Hebrew University. I manage my own Israel Education organization, IMPACT Seminars, providing lectures, seminars, tours and educational content for visiting students to Israel on short and long term programs. I live in Jerusalem with my wife and daughter.
