CURRENT MISSION

To make people happier and healthier

ABOUT ME

After moving to NYC recently from Michigan and before that Israel I have come to appreciate the diversity of experiences there are here. I spend a lot of time studying for my medical boards but I also love to play soccer and hockey in the city. I am happy to meet up for a drink or to answer any questions you might have about NYC. After travelling across the world I have refocused my energies on seeing more of my own country. I have never been to New Orleans, the Grand Canyon, or Yellowstone Park and I plan on visiting all of these soon, and hopefully skiing out West this winter as well. From my experience CS'ers are wonderful people and I look forward to meeting some more of you guys soon.

PHILOSOPHY

Make the world a happier and healthier place.
