Throughout my life, I've learned the value of hard work. And guts. At 17 I took over "Senior Event Director" position in my local synagogue, already then, I knew that my age was not an excuse to settle for less. In the summer of 2016 I was temporarily paralyzed and put in the ICU with a rare case of GBS. Within a month of being discharged, I took on the challenge of mountain biking across Israel using only dirt roads and forest trails... alone. It was punishing, riding some days for 12 hours straight.
In short - I push myself. I set and adjust my goals frequently, ensuring that I utilize my time to the maximum potential. I am a people person, and I love being able to use my passion to break boundaries and motivate those around me to do the same.
Since I was a kid I loved buying and selling. The first website I ever visited was eBay. I was 10 at the time, and I got hooked. I started selling anything I could get my hands on. My dad's old suits, my friends sporting gear, old cellphones, etc. Eventually, eBay closed my account due to age restrictions, apparently, you cant have an eBay account at 11 years old. 😉 Needless to say, I opened another account in my mother's name. Age was not going to stop me from making money.
Growing up with both of my parents being professional fundraisers, I learned early, the skills needed to close a sale. At 16 I began fundraising for my parents' organization. Being able to excite people about a product or idea is a skill I was shown since day one, and I am constantly studying and perfecting the art of sales
