I'm a salesperson in the tech world and an AI enthusiast. A former commander, counselor, lecturer and content creator, now moving from Jerusalem to Singapore to help an ambitious tech company scale across Asia-Pacific.
I'm moving to Singapore and looking to join a tech company in Asia-Pacific, then on to Boston.

I oversaw more than a hundred soldiers a year, including officers and highly ranked soldiers.

"The road, so very long, became the goal." From my song חלום
Listen on Spotify →I'm a salesperson in the tech world, a former IDF commander, a counselor and lecturer who speaks to audiences in Israel and across the United States, and a content creator.
Technology is my field. I really love learning it and hearing about every new development, and I put it to work right away. With AI I build websites and apps, like this site and World Master, my geography game.
On Instagram I run @hebrewithshaked, where I post Hebrew-teaching videos that I film and edit.
I'm based in Jerusalem and moving to Singapore, where I'm looking to join a tech company in Asia-Pacific. After that, I'll spend at least a year in Boston. I'm also finishing a degree in Business Administration at Excelsior University in Albany, New York, around February 2027.
I speak Hebrew, English, and Arabic, which I self-learned.
Outside of work I learn about economics, new developments in AI, geopolitics and more. I also write and perform music, create content, travel at every opportunity, and have been doing street workout (calisthenics) for 12 years.
I live in Jerusalem and I'm moving to Singapore soon, where my wife will study.
I'm excited to get to know the international business world of Asia-Pacific, build meaningful connections, discover new cultures, and keep growing in tech.
After Singapore, I'll move to Boston for at least a year.
When I volunteered at a school in Washington, my students didn't know any Hebrew at all. I looked for a creative way to teach them, and used my media skills to start an Instagram page where the students teach themselves Hebrew in a fun, funny way. Many students wanted to be featured on the Instagram page.
When I came back to Israel, I wanted people abroad to understand what's really happening here. So I started making videos about that too.
Every pin marks a place where I've given a talk. Touch the map to see each state.
The song is about the feeling that life keeps repeating itself, and the wish to do great things. That idea still guides me today.
Self-taught on guitar and piano since high school, I now play both at a professional level and perform regularly at ceremonies and events.
I wrote and composed חלום ("Dream") at 19 with my guitar.

I'm 25 and grew up in Karnei Shomron. As a member and then a counselor in youth movements (Bnei Akiva, Hashomer HaChadash, and ILAN, an organization for kids with special needs), I found out how much I love working with people.
In high school I taught myself guitar and piano, and I've loved playing at ceremonies and events ever since.
Selling came early, too. In elementary school I ran a small business out of my school locker, selling candy and toys I had bought cheaply. In high school I became a sales representative for a coat and sweater brand, building a local sales channel from scratch and bringing in more than 100 customers.
I went on to study at the yeshiva in Eli (2020–2021) and then at the hesder yeshiva in Yeruham (2021).
During those years I wrote and composed my song חלום ("Dream"), putting into words a paradox I had come to see after high school: flowing with life naturally, while striving for meaning.
After a long selection process I was accepted as a commander in the Education Corps' Nativ course for mid-service soldiers.
There I commanded soldiers of higher rank than my own, officers among them. I walked with them through some of the most significant turning points of their lives and became a steady pillar for them for the rest of their service. Each year I led more than a hundred soldiers from every corps of the IDF.
After the army I flew to Washington as an emissary for Torah MiTzion. I gave dozens of talks in English at schools, universities and communities, and led events for up to 300 people. Over the year I traveled through more than 25 states, giving talks in communities along the way.
I was chosen for the KKL ambassadors conference in Pennsylvania, and in summer 2025 I headed the music department at Camp Stone, leading a five-piece band in front of hundreds.
Living in the capital, I met key figures in American economics and politics. I was looking for a way to make a big impact, to reach positions of real influence one day, and to dream big. Out of a deep love for Israel, I decided I wanted to be part of the country's largest economic enterprise: the high-tech industry.
Back in Israel I started a B.A. in Economics and Business Administration at the Open University, building toward a career in high-tech. I'm now finishing a degree in Business Administration at the American Excelsior University in Albany, New York, around February 2027. Alongside my studies I chose work with meaning: I became a counselor for at-risk youth at the Chetzim youth village, teaching Hebrew, English, Arabic, history and geography to teenagers who had given up on school, and earning back their trust.
Back home, alongside my studies, I also started creating videos about my country, including advocacy videos for the Civilian Public Diplomacy HQ.
Then came sales in tech. I joined an early-stage startup in Tel Aviv as an SDR, and within two weeks I was already running product demos myself, closing them at an exceptionally high rate. I helped grow the customer base by 87%, booked more than 80 demos, and built the company's CRM and an AI-powered sales workflow.
Next stop: Singapore, where my wife will study and where I want to bring this experience to a tech company in Asia-Pacific, followed by at least a year in Boston.
I'm obsessed with geography: capitals, geopolitics, and learning how global processes and cultures work.
I built World Master, a game where you find all 195 countries on the map and name their capitals, to test my own knowledge, and I've already nailed almost all of it. Try it yourself and let me know how you did.
