Born in Jerusalem, I have always been fascinated with the built environment and human interaction. The symbiotic relationship between economic policy, sustainable design, and forward thinking planning models led me to delve into the world of urban planning and economic development. My consulting practice caters towards serving a wide range of clients, from municipalities, to public/private entities and private developers.
