When I began working at the age of 14 as a server, despite my insecurities, I felt driven to excel in my role, treat others well and learn as much as I could. Today, my fundamental drive remains the same: I am driven to make a difference, and I’m ready to learn new lessons every day.

After serving time in the Israel Defense Force as a military police officer over two decades ago, I emigrated to the U.S., and by pure happenstance, was introduced to 911 Restoration Founder, Idan Shpizear.
