In 1960, he took his first pulpit at Rabbi of Sons of Abraham Synagogue in Lafayette, Indiana, and continued his studies at Purdue University in West Lafayette. Later he came to Ner Israel near Baltimore where he continued his rabbinic studies. He has taught, Judaica including Jewish Semiotics, at the Presidents University in Illinois, Humboldt University with Dr Peter von Der Osten Sacken, University of Potsdam, Moses Mendelsohn Institute, and The Technischer Universität, in Berlin.
