    I majored in Business Marketing, Economics and a minor in Accounting.

    Social Services

    I joined Rotary to provide service to my Great Neck and surrounding communities. We are known for the "Gift of Life" whereby, we fly in children that have heart issues and provide them "free of charge" all the necessary surgical procedures and accomodations for parents to get them back to health. I was President of the Club from 2011-2012, and received my Paul Harris Award for my services. We also have projects with the High Schools through RotoAct, sort of a Rotary for High School students.…

    I joined Rotary to provide service to my Great Neck and surrounding communities. We are known for the "Gift of Life" whereby, we fly in children that have heart issues and provide them "free of charge" all the necessary surgical procedures and accomodations for parents to get them back to health. I was President of the Club from 2011-2012, and received my Paul Harris Award for my services. We also have projects with the High Schools through RotoAct, sort of a Rotary for High School students. Rotary was started in 1906 by Paul Harris. He started out in his garage in Chicago as a business networking concept and use to rotate between all his members locations, therefore creating Rotary as we know it today. However, years later, it evolved into a service organizations besides business and is now a globally organization with over 1.2 million members. When you travel you will always see the Rotary Gear on bridges or places when you enter into a town, noting where they meet each week for breakfast, lunch or dinner. An amazing group of selfless individuals, who provide "Service, Above Self."
    We have a 4 way test Of the things we Think, Say or Do:
    1.) Is it the TRUTH?
    2.) Is it FAIR to all concerned?
    3.) Will it build GOOD WILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
    4.) Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
