Why JewBelong?

"Judaism and being Jewish is being part of a religion, ethnicity, culture, nationality, and community. It is about inclusion and resilience."

  • If I were on "America's Got Talent," I would perform character-schtik.
  • In high school, I was known for for being the kid parents wanted their kids to be friends with.
  • I can cook a mean gourmet experience.
  • The last time I forgot sunscreen was a painfully red experience.
  • My favorite TV show ever is obviously my own shows! I mean, I am an actor, tv host, and filmmaker.
  • Don't judge, but absolutely nothing is on my nightstand.
  • Aside from JewBelong, my favorite Instagram influencer/feed is all the fabulous people who follow JewBelong and me. There are so many fabulous feeds!
  • Karaoke? Count me in! I’m singing in Yiddish!
  • Bartender! Please make me a(n) spicy cocktail.
  • If old-school dance music is playing, I’ll be on the dance floor.
  • Best musical? Cabaret
