Answer the quintessential Baltimore question – where did you go to school?

I attended Beth Tfiloh for middle school, McDonogh for high school, travelled to New England to attend Brandeis University for undergrad and returned to Baltimore to attend UB School of Law. I currently live in Pikesville with and my wife Eve and three teenage children, Tali, Ilan and Itai.  

Tell us about your day job and how you came to start MiCasa Title?

Immediately after college I worked at JenMar Homes, my family’s home building business. I had truly enjoyed studying Political Science at Brandeis, but it was not the most practical schooling to work in construction, so I decided to go to Law School. After my first year at UB I got an internship at a local title company and quickly knew what I was meant to do. I worked there and at a couple of other title companies until 2007 when I decided to open MiCasa Title.

How did you get involved with The Associated?

While on the board of Beth Tfiloh Congregation, I became the Beth Tfiloh representative to the Baltimore Jewish Council (BJC) Board – I couldn’t pass the opportunity to put my political science degree to good use. I went through the Leadership Development Program (LDP) and then The Associated world opened up to me. I am a past member of the BJC Board and the CHAI Board and currently serve on the REIG Committee and the Associated’s Real Estate Committee.

And, why is your involvement with REIG, our real estate industry group, important to you?

REIG arranges some of the best events to meet the local leaders in the real estate industry and to showcase their projects.

What is your favorite Baltimore spot?

Chiyo Sushi in Mt. Washington. Sit at the counter and ask Alan for the Mark Special.

What is the TV show or book you are currently enjoying?

TV show – Succession and I have my eye on Cowboy Bebop next.

Book – 2034, a novel about the next world war. I may need something lighter to read after I finish this…

Do you have any hobbies or interests that occupy your time?

My daughter Tali is in her senior year at Jemicy School, so I am really enjoying her college admissions search. We spend a lot of time researching and visiting schools together. My sons Ilan and Itai are in middle school at BT. I try not to miss any of their soccer and basketball games.
