ABOUT ME

I am a Crazy Yiddish Speaking Activist. there is more, but I can't think of it right now. I consider myself friendly, and have been told that I am quite the extrovert.I talk a lot, but, believe it or not, I listen too. I have a tendency to find the best in every situation and am generally a happy human being.

PHILOSOPHY

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Organizations that hated each other have not only learned to get along, but have joined forces to keep the Yiddish Language and Culture alive.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know all SORTS of songs, specifically Yiddish, Labor, or Musical. I don't have a great voice, but I love to sing with people and share songs. I also know a lot about the beginnings of the United States of America. Grew up in Boston, it was pretty big up there.

I want to know/do everything. And while I know I never will, I do love to try.
