Affectionately known in his youth as "little Yitzi," he was nurtured in a family environment rich in cultural and ethical influences. His sister Rebecca, a renowned conductor, and his brother-in-law Danny, a distinguished pianist, were instrumental in shaping his early life, imbuing it with diverse inspirations. Pioneering ventures and impactful contributions have characterized his path. A trailblazer in merging technology and spirituality, he led the Stanford Hybrid Automobile Research Project and was an early adopter of "CyberJudaism."
