I grew up here in the Baltimore Jewish community, and being part of this community has always been important to me. After finishing school, I spent time in Israel where I served in the Israel Defense Forces as a medic.

Serving as a medic was a powerful experience. It showed me how important the human body is and how much our health affects every part of our lives. When someone’s body is strong and functioning well, it allows them to live more fully.

Seeing injuries and medical situations firsthand reinforced something important for me: taking care of the body isn’t just about appearance. It’s about building the strength and stability that allow people to live with confidence and independence.
