Board Member

Engagement in the Jewish Community on a local and national scale has been a central component of my life since my teenage years as a regional officer in USY and member of Hillel at the University of Michigan. After arriving in Boston in the mid-1980’s, I have maintained continued Jewish communal involvement as a Board Member and officer of Temple Emanuel in Newton, a leader in AIPAC’s Boston chapter and member of AIPAC’s National Council, and Board Member of JCRC of Greater Boston. I have been a vocal advocate on behalf of Israel at a state, local and national level, and through that work have developed strong relationships among Massachusetts political leaders and across the New England Congressional Delegation. My wife, Molly, and I have traveled to Israel many times, including attendance at the Hartman Institute in the summer of 2024. 

 

My career was centered in commercial real estate, with a focus on the development, management, and financing of affordable housing communities across the United States. Among my endeavors, I was a project manager and general counsel at The Boston Land Company, general counsel and executive vice president of CWCapital, executive vice president of Walker & Dunlop, President of Wingate Capital, and Senior Vice President and Deputy General Counsel, Multifamily, at Fannie Mae.
