Her work spans marketing and web design for local nonprofits, startups, and activists, focusing on areas such as education, art, service, and community projects, with the goal of amplifying the impact of initiatives driving positive change.
Bridget lives in Tel Aviv where she enjoys reading by the sea and practicing yoga. Yet, much of her free time is devoted to engaging with Israel's diverse communities, participating in grassroots projects, and exploring the country's narratives and political landscape.

Each argument, discussion, and encounter in Israel has been a lesson in empathy, in seeing the world from perspectives not her own. It has taught her the value of embracing differing views, how they enrich our understanding, and bring us closer even when we disagree.
