Ensieh Shervin Shegeft is an analyst in the health care industry with more than twenty years of professional experience built across different organizations and roles. Her background includes project coordination, human resources support, and benefits administration, all performed with steady focus and accountability. She is known for being dependable and attentive to detail, qualities that have earned trust over time. Her work style reflects consistency and cooperation, contributing to stable outcomes and respectful professional relationships.

Shervin was born outside the United States and later relocated with her family, adapting to a new culture and environment during her formative years. Growing up in new communities required patience and resilience, which became lasting personal strengths. She completed her education step by step, earning an associate-level degree before completing a bachelor’s degree in business administration. This achievement represented a meaningful milestone and reflected dedication, perseverance, and strong family encouragement.

Shervin Shegeft entered the workforce after completing her education and gradually developed a broad range of skills across multiple industries. While building her career, she was also raising two children, balancing professional responsibilities with family needs through careful planning and discipline. She approached each position with the goal of long-term stability, valuing consistency and reliability. Her ability to manage both work and home life demonstrated commitment and a steady sense of responsibility.

Shervin considers being a mother her most important role and has always remained closely involved in her children’s lives. She regularly volunteered in educational settings, supported school events, and assisted with classroom activities whenever possible. Being present and supportive was a priority, even during demanding work periods. As her children grew older and became more independent, maintaining strong connections and shared experiences continued to guide her daily life and personal decisions.

Shervin believes in contributing to her community through practical and meaningful actions. Over the years, she has volunteered her time, shared creative skills with young students, and participated in donation efforts during seasonal holidays. These activities were motivated by a desire to help rather than by a passion for recognition. She values giving back in simple ways that foster connection and support, finding quiet fulfillment in contributing to others' well-being.

Shervin Shegeft enjoys creative activities that provide balance and relaxation outside of work. Drawing and painting are personal outlets that allow her to slow down and focus, often through small, thoughtful projects made for loved ones. She also enjoys knitting, creating valuable items that combine care and patience. These hobbies offer a sense of calm and accomplishment, reinforcing the importance of taking time for creativity and reflection.

Shervin has a strong interest in cooking and baking, often preparing meals inspired by her cultural background and sharing them with family. Food has long been a way for her to express care, connection, and gratitude. She also enjoys interior design, finding satisfaction in arranging spaces thoughtfully and creating balanced environments. This interest has sparked curiosity about exploring real estate in the future, where creativity and attention to detail align naturally.

Ensieh Shervin Shegeft values spending quality time with her family and appreciates simple shared moments, such as watching movies together when time allows. She enjoys a wide range of film styles, finding meaning in both lighthearted and reflective stories. These moments highlight what matters most to her. Across her career, personal interests, and daily routines, family remains the foundation of her life and the central influence behind her priorities.

Robert Kasirer is the Manager of the Kasirer Family Office, where he built a national real estate investment and management company with holdings in 12 states. He also serves as President of the Kasirer Family Foundation (“KFF”), which supports educational institutions and Jewish causes. Through this foundation, support has been directed to universities, schools, camps, community programs, and a broad range of Jewish organizations committed to strengthening learning, identity, and engagement.

In 2022, Robert founded the Neshamah Project Inc. in the United States, together with a related nonprofit in Israel, to develop the Neshamah Platform and Neshamah App. These projects were created as a single digital space combining music, Jewish learning, prayer, podcasts, videos, and short interactive experiences. The platform is designed for individuals and communities. It includes customizable areas where organizations, synagogues, schools, camps, on-campus groups, and content creators can share their work alongside a larger library.

His family history is rooted in resilience and survival. Kasirer's parents were Holocaust survivors; his mother endured Auschwitz, and his father was forced into labor. Most of their relatives were killed. They came from a small village in the Carpathian Mountains, now part of Ukraine. After liberation, they married and lived in Austria while awaiting visas to the United States. He and a sibling were born there, while another was born in Los Angeles after the family arrived to begin a new life.

When the family settled in Los Angeles in 1954, Jewish resources in the city were limited. His parents helped establish educational institutions, supported synagogues, and extended their involvement to Jewish communities in New York and Israel. Their values shaped his upbringing. At 13, he attended a Jewish boarding school in New York, where he continued both religious and secular studies through university.

Robert later attended New York University and a law school in New York. After passing the bar, he moved to Los Angeles, formed a law firm with two associates, and later joined a national firm before working in real estate with his father. After his father passed in 2005, he continued expanding the company. His sons and son-in-law now manage daily operations while he serves as Chairman.

He has been married for 48 years, has four children, and has 13 grandchildren. He enjoys skiing, hiking, and traveling, experiences that continue to guide Robert Kasirer's life and work.
