Featured Project
Blue Square Alliance Against Hate
Athlete Ambassador
In 2025, I was selected as one of six NCAA student-athletes nationwide for the inaugural Blue Square Athlete Ambassador program, an initiative of Robert Kraft’s Foundation to Combat Antisemitism. The opportunity became one of the most meaningful experiences of my life and changed the way I thought about my own Jewish identity and the responsibility that came with having a platform.
As an ambassador, I’ve had the opportunity to share that message through print, digital and broadcast media, podcasts, speaking engagements, and events with younger athletes. A Blue Square campaign video featuring my story reached more than 500,000 views, but what has mattered most to me is being a positive role model for young Jewish athletes. My goal has never been to tell someone else what to believe. It is to stand proudly in who I am, speak out against antisemitism, and encourage the next generation to have that same confidence in who they are.
I continue to serve as a Blue Square Athlete Ambassador today, participating in media, speaking engagements, and appearances whenever I’m asked. It is a role I am incredibly proud to represent.
Other Projects
Angels at Bat
Arizona Chapter Founder
I first learned about Angels at Bat when I was 15, after seeing its teenage founder recognized for collecting used baseball equipment for children with little access to the game. Inspired by what he had built, I reached out and asked if I could start an Arizona chapter.
Beginning in 2018, I organized equipment drives through my high school baseball program, established year-round collection sites at local sporting goods stores, and handled everything from inventory to packing and shipping. I kept the chapter active after leaving for Stanford, and now that I’ve graduated, I’m excited to become more involved again and expand what we started.

Athlete-to-Athlete
Mentor
Athlete-to-Athlete reached out and invited me to come on board as a mentor for younger athletes. I worked weekly with five kids, ages 10 to 15, talking through everything from baseball mechanics and confidence to school, time management, and whatever else was on their minds.
I always emphasized that being a serious athlete and being a strong student should go together. Over time, I got to know each of them well, and our weekly conversations became something they relied on. Being trusted in that role was incredibly meaningful to me.

Content Creation & Storytelling
Creator & Storyteller
After being featured by the Blue Square Alliance, I wanted to give younger Jewish athletes the same opportunity to feel seen, heard, and proud of who they are. I began finding young athletes whose stories I could share, then interviewed them and scripted, filmed, edited, and published each piece myself.
That project gave my social media a purpose and led to another original series exploring core Jewish values through storytelling. I discovered how much I enjoy taking an idea or someone’s experience and shaping it into a story that can connect with other people.

Human Performance Research
Stanford Senior Capstone
For my senior capstone at Stanford, I spent a year independently researching Central Governor Theory, which explores how physiological and psychological mechanisms work together to influence human performance. The subject fascinated me because it connected directly with my interest in understanding how people become faster, stronger, more resilient, and ultimately perform at their best.
The project brought together four years of study in my Human Biology concentration, Psychology and the Mechanisms of Human Performance. I presented my research to Stanford faculty, peers, and community members and completed a final research paper that received strong feedback from my Human Biology faculty and advisors.

Stanford Maccabi
Co-Founder & Co-President
Recognizing that there were only about 20 Jewish student-athletes at Stanford, and no dedicated community bringing them together, another athlete and I co-founded Stanford Maccabi. I helped find members across different teams, which gave me the chance to get to know athletes throughout the university and create a space for connection, friendship, holiday gatherings, and support.
During my senior year, other members asked me to serve as co-president. I helped organize events, strengthen the community we had built, and represent the group while connecting with other student leaders across campus.

Community Involvement
Ongoing Service
Community service has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I volunteered with my family at homeless shelters, soup kitchens, food banks, youth programs, and other service organizations, and I continued that work on my own as I got older.
At Stanford, I stayed involved through Team IMPACT, which partnered a child with our baseball program. His favorite number happened to be 13, the same number I wore, and that small connection really mattered to us both. I eventually gave him one of my jerseys. Experiences like that have always reminded me that service is really about showing up for people and building genuine relationships.
