He is a trustee of Natan, a New York-based philanthropy whose grant-making focuses on the Jewish community and Israel. He graduated from the University of Michigan. He is the son of Giselle Weinstein and Stanford Weinstein of Manhattan. His father retired as the owner of an insurance brokerage bearing his name in Brooklyn.
