Gotham is amazing. Perhaps I had taken Gotham for granted for a while. That was shaken last Monday as I attended Gotham’s Encores meeting and joined in welcoming Ellin Yaskey back to Gotham.
Ellin has been inactive since moving from the United States to Israel over ten years ago.
Ellin joined our virtual meeting from her apartment in Tel Aviv -- one of the benefits of virtuality. She shared with us her journey— both physical and otherwise — over the last decade. Driven by economic issues and necessity, she made the move of a lifetime.
Her story was riveting, compelling, emotional and inspirational.
Hopefully Ellin will be joining us for years to come and others will benefit from her journey and insight.
Ellin ---- Welcome home.
