About Me

Before college, I held a strong interest in technology. Upon starting school, I developed a newfound fascination in business, specifically in investing and entrepreneurship. I aspire to blend my passion for technology with my intrigue for business in my future endeavors throughout my time at UMass.

Outside of academics, I am a founding father of the Amherst Chapter of the Alpha Epsilon Pi Fraternity. I am also involved with the UMass Ski & Board Club, the Russian Speaking Student Organization, and the Jewish Leaders in Busienss Club.

Photography

In my free time I am photography hobbyist. I specialize in event photography and portraits, however in my free time I love to do a bit of urban exploring to get some shots of the cities in my area.

You can find my work on Unsplash and on my portfolio page. Additionally, in the summer of 2023, I did some private pro-bono work for a New Hampshire summer camp for 4 weeks. During that time I not only got to be the photographer but I also taught an introductory photo workshop to kids aged 12-16.
