I lead grassroots campaigns and public demonstrations through nefeshlozen.com, mobilizing neighbors around racial, economic, and LGBTQ+ justice. I balance full‑time work at DSV, online coursework, and sustained community organizing bringing strategic coordination, coalition‑building, and on‑the‑ground care to every project I take on.

I am the leader and founder of Nefesh, the grassroots communitarian organization behind nefeshlozen.com. Our work centers on building real, tangible community through direct action, mutual aid, and public engagement. We organize protests, community events, and collective projects that bring people together across backgrounds to support one another and challenge injustice. Nefesh is rooted in the belief that lasting change comes from relationships, solidarity, and everyday people stepping forward to shape the world around them.
