At kiddish after his bar mitzvah, Eli asked the Rabbi if he could come back and do it all again next week! Ever since then, he has had a love for learning and sharing Torah. Through lots of visual imagination and clever use of metaphor, Eli has a knack for making the complicated seem simple and for bringing the texts of our tradition to life.
