In 1993, he moved to Chicago to join the United Jewish Appeal traveling throughout the Midwest in support of Israel.

Rick is a graduate of the prestigious Wexner Heritage Foundation’s two-year course in Jewish Leadership.

Beginning in 1985, for a nine-year period both on active-duty and in the reserve forces, Rick was an Intelligence Specialist in the United States Navy, serving aboard the aircraft carriers USS Nimitz and the USS Theodore Roosevelt. Much of Rick’s tenure in the Navy was spent with the U.S. Sixth Fleet operating in the eastern Mediterranean, confronting issues of state-sponsored terrorism and other threats to the security of the United States and our allies.
