Y Scouts

As CEO of Y Scouts, I highlight the connection between purpose and leadership in the recruiting process to transform how people and companies connect through a shared sense of purpose. Over the past 9 years, my efforts have brought this conversation to the forefront in the boardrooms of some of the most highly respected companies across the country.

I’m proud to lead a team of fully-committed recruiting and leadership development experts who find and hire exceptional, deeply-aligned leaders.

CEO | We Find Purpose Driven Executives For Value Aligned Companies

I’m on a mission to change how we hire leaders in this country. Our employees and customers deserve to work with executives who are aligned on the values and the mission of the company, as well as being highly capable. 

The traditional hiring system is broken. Job boards and AI have created an unholy mess of the recruitment process and no one is winning. Candidates are anxious and over-applying, employers are drowning in applications and paralyzed by choice. 

At Y Scouts, we lead with purpose. We don’t advertise roles — we use our covert discovery process to handpick outstanding candidates for your leadership role. We obsess about 3 key characteristics: 

- Relentless learning
- Developing others
- Delivering results

If a candidate has all 3, they fit our Leadership Model and only then do we progress to assessing their experience and capabilities. We look for soft skills, culture alignment and an expectation of excellence.

My early career in recruiting started at Aerotek, one of the biggest aerospace recruiters in the country. A few years later, I started my own firm, Tru Path (formerly Job Brokers Inc.), a company that grew 100% year-over-year for eight years, scaling to $50 million in revenue. 

We hired over 50,000 people across many different industries. Churn was often high, and I realized that to drive real growth in a company's culture, you have to start at the top.

So in 2012, I co-founded Y Scouts, the world’s first purpose-driven executive search firm. We work with dozens of industries, from fashion to fitness, medicine to manufacturing. 

My philosophy is simple: hire like your business depends on it — because it does. 

Ready to find the leaders who are going to take your business further than you could have imagined? Let’s talk.

As the founder of Triple S Ops, my mission is to architect and deploy bespoke AI agents that create operational freedom for the Jewish business community. I am the lead strategist and hands-on builder for every custom AI agent we create, focusing on robust business automation and intelligent workflow automation.

My work is centered on creating a fully autonomous operational layer for businesses, using a suite of specialized AI agents:

► AI Customer Service Agent Implementation:
I build and train every AI customer service agent to act as a seamless extension of our clients' teams. This includes deploying a sophisticated AI phone answering service and creating systems for automated support ticket management, ensuring exceptional client experiences.

► AI-Powered Operations & Workflow Automation:
My expertise lies in integrating AI agents into the core of a business. This includes hands-on development of:
• AI for bookkeeping and financial reporting.
• AI for social media posting and content distribution.

► Technical Architecture & Strategy:
I lead the technical development, focusing on conversational AI design, autonomous agents logic, and complex API integrations. My role is to ensure every AI agent we build is not just a tool, but a reliable, scalable, and fully integrated part of the business's operating system.
