Thoughtful Experiences that Bring Communities Together
I curate events that are welcoming, beautiful, and deeply rooted.
My model of facilitating “friend-shidduchim” ensures that while people may enter alone, they never leave without meeting a new person. Whether I am leading a Seder, hosting a Friday-night gathering, or crafting a small-group retreat, my goal is always the same: to design programs that invite people to uncover meaning and build connections.
As the rabbi at several MOISHE HOUSE retreats, I’ve created low-barrier settings with high-impact Jewish content that foster community bonding.
Led by Jewish artists and a rabbinic emcee, SHABBAT VIBES is an alternative Shabbat experience that blends community, music, food, and guided rituals into an interactive Friday-night concert. Click the picture to learn more!
I officiate PRIVATE B'NEI MITZVAH for children and adults who are not affiliated with a synagogue. Each experience is shaped with care, honoring the student’s unique path and inviting them into deeper relationship with Torah, tradition, and community.
VOLUNTEERING is a centerpiece of my life. I lead group outings to HUC's Community Kitchen and Central's Breakfast Program. Our team teaches Jewish texts that inspire this expression of tikkun olam.
For years, I’ve facilitated my family’s annual 2nd-night PASSOVER SEDER for 60+ people from various faith backgrounds, blending storytelling, music, games, and traditional rituals to create engaging experiences.
As the rabbinic presence at TRYBAL GATHERINGS, I’ve created innovative getaways that invite young Jewish adults to connect, explore, play, and celebrate together.
At our Passover WINE TASTING, congregants explored Jewish cultures from around the world through wine, paired with Passover-friendly snacks.
I’ve created HANDS-ON PROGRAMS like "Shrink & Shrinky Dinks,“ "Prayer Yoga," and “Color-Me-Mine Passover Prep” that give everyone a chance to express their creativity while connecting more deeply to Jewish holidays and traditions.
With a small, invested team, we welcome a community of young Jews in their 20s and 30s to gather monthly for Shabbat as part of Central 20s & 30s and the NYC SHABBAT COLLECTIVE.
