Originally from southwest Ohio, Daniel quickly formed a connection between his Jewish identity and the importance of inclusion and working toward a more socially just society. He dived further into social justice and Jewish thought while an undergraduate at Lehigh University. His passion for social justice and education continued during his graduate studies at New York University, where he received a master’s in higher education administration and student affairs. Daniel joined Keshet spending three years working at a small liberal arts college as assistant director of residence life. There, he trained students in building inclusive residential communities as well as assisting students whenever they had concerns about their community environment. As National Director of Education and Training with Keshet, Daniel works with Jewish communal organizations around the country on making their communities more LGBTQ inclusive.
