When I was a boy, my mother taught me a simple but profound principle that has shaped my life and work ever since. She told me that the ancient Jewish philosophy of “Tikkun Olam” was the best way to live a meaningful life of purpose. I’ve taken that idea to heart, and I’ve always strived to understand the deep meaning of Tikkun Olam and make my work live up to this high standard.
