Originally known for heading the Aquatics programs of the Prosserman and Schwartz Reisman JCC's, Yuri leveraged his passion for photography, as well as audio, video, computer, and network engineering to reinvent himself over the course of the pandemic as a broadcast professional. 

Yuri is most typically seen streaming Beth Tzedec's services and programs, building AV infrastructure, editing videos, taking photos and flying his drone.

Yuri has been described by his Beth Tzedec peers as "the one who has the most fun."
