Experience
2023 - Present
The Institue For National Security Studies
Director of Public Affairs
I established the INSS’s public policy activities by integrating a product-centric and customer service mindset, while managing high-level stakeholder relations with political leadership, government officials, foreign diplomats, civil society leaders, and international organizations. I introduced information technologies and performance metrics to improve client outreach, messaging, and efficiency, and I advise executives while collaborating closely with the research, digital, partnerships, and events teams.
2021-2022
Office of the Speaker of the Knesset
International Media Spokesperson & Social Media Manager
I served as a trusted communications advisor to the Speaker of the Knesset, managing international media relations and digital channels, writing speeches, and issuing press releases. I developed a multi-platform content strategy that resulted in 200% growth in social media followers, and I coordinated the Speaker’s official visits, ensuring seamless logistics, effective communications, and high-level execution.

Mitvim - The Israeli Institute for Regional Foreign Policies
Government Relations Coordinator
I was responsible for advancing Mitvim's policy recommendations into positions of influence by cultivating and managing the institute’s relationships with politicians, organizing briefings, promoting strategic collaborations, and highlighting Mitvim’s expertise in foreign affairs. In addition, I monitored parliamentary activity on foreign policy and encouraged politicians to engage with these issues through their parliamentary tools and public platforms.
2019
The Knesset
Spokesperson and Foreign Affairs Advisor
I was responsible for advancing the MP’s agenda with foreign audiences, diplomats, and international organizations, while also working closely with journalists, managing social media accounts, and drafting posts, press releases, and speeches. I provided strategic advice to the MP on a wide range of international and domestic issues and conducted both policy and political research. This role demanded long hours in a fast-paced, sensitive, and highly dynamic environment that required constant multitasking and precision.

The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
Research Assistant
I was a research assistant for Prof Sharon Gilad at the Department of Public Policy. The research studied the effects that Israel’s social protest of 2011 had on the civil service. My role was to catalogue, using MS Excel, the government’s ads/press releases and transcribe and summarise dozens of interviews with senior government officials held by the lead researchers.
Education
2016-2018
Master of Arts
King's College London
War Studies
I specialized in AI ethics, future military technological trends and war ethics, with my thesis focused on developing a normative theory for Autonomous Weapon Systems. My coursework included Strategy, Ethics, Risk in Political Uncertainty, Open-Source Intelligence and National Security Studies, along with additional focus on data ethics and digital-age privacy.
2012-2016
Bachelor of Arts
The Hebrew University of Jerusalem
Philosophy and Political Science
My studies examined how moral values shape decisions in times of war, from the classical foundations of just war theory to modern frameworks such as the Rome Statute. In one seminar, I researched questions of free will in the context of war and the moral legitimacy of “wars of no choice,” while in another I focused on reconciliation and forgiveness between soldiers as part of the broader ethical responsibilities of leaders and combatants. This combination of philosophy and political science provided me with a rigorous understanding of how ideas about justice, responsibility, and morality continue to inform contemporary debates,
