Introduction Just your average ex-lawyer/Rabbi who loves to teach about Judaism and who loves to learn about music, both Jewish and secular. I can't seem to stay away from learning and was fortunate to be able to take many cooking classes while in Austin, TX, as well as becoming a student in the Music Department at Austin Community College, which was one of the best things I ever did for myself. After 8 years as the Rabbi at Temple Israel of West Palm Beach, FL, I returned to Congregation Ner Tamid in Las Vegas/Henderson, NV, as its Resident Rabbinic Scholar. I will begin a new, and very different, position in Tempe, AZ, on June 1, 2021. Living in Tempe will be a completely different kind of adventure and I look forward to hearing back from you if something touches your heart. : ) ======= PS ...
