  • Eitan Katz - The Kumzitz King

    A member of an extremely musical family, Eitan discovered that he had not just a love of music, but the talent as well. Spending his childhood moving back and forth between Los Angeles and Israel, Eitan was exposed to a wide variety of music from his earliest days.

    During his high school years, Eitan found himself gravitating towards the music of R' Shlomo Carlebach which resonated deep within him and prompted him to take up the guitar, an instrument that instantly felt like it belonged in his hands.

    Being able to switch seamlessly from kumzitz mode to the simcha spirit comes naturally to Eitan who believes that when music comes from a place that is pure and true, expressing it in different ways is effortless.

  • Rebbetzin Chaya Small - From Shanghai to Chicago

    From 1938-1939, thousands of Central European Jews streamed into the Chinese city of Shanghai after the Nazi "Anschluss," or annexation of Austria by Germany in March 1938. By 1941 Polish Jewish refugees started to join them, traveling via Lithuania, Siberia, and finally Japan. By 1943, over 16,500 Jewish refugees were living in Shanghai.

    One of these refugees was Chaya Leah Small. A person who takes the values of the torah into her home, her shul and her real estate brokering company.
