In 1986 I graduated from Ben-Gurion University of Israel with a bachelor's degree in Behavioral Sciences. I then completed hi my master's and doctoral degree at Wayne State University in Detroit. During my fourth year in the program, I completed a full-time one-year APA accredited internship at the Detroit and Ann Arbor VA Medical Centers. Upon completing his training, in 1991, I completed a one-year post-doctoral training in clinical neuropsychology at UCLA. In 1996, he returned to Israel and took a position as a lecturer in the Department of Psychology at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.Additionally, I worked at the Department of Neurosurgery at Sheba Medical Center (affiliated with Tel Aviv University), the Department of Psychiatry, and the Department of Child Rehabilitation. In this setting, I performed invasive pre-and intra-operative speech and memory evaluations in addition to standard neuropsychological assessments. I also conducted forensic evaluations. In 2004, I moved to Cleveland and took a position at Cleveland State University. In 2018, I was nominated as a fellow of the National Academy of Neuropsychology. Fellows are members of the academy who have demonstrated evidence of advancing the science and profession of clinical neuropsychology.
