== Life History ==
Born on 7 Teves 1971 to Rabbi Yehoshua Zelig Feldman, Rosh Yeshiva of Achei Tmimim Rishon Letzion, and Mrs. Zehava.

In his youth, he studied at Yeshivas Tomchei Tmimim in Eretz Hakodesh, and in 1990 traveled to study at the Central Tomchei Tmimim Yeshiva at 770 as part of the Kvutza year. After completing the Kvutza year - following Tishrei 1991 - he returned to Eretz Hakodesh, and after a short time, in the month of Shevat, returned to 770. In winter 1992, together with other Tmimim, he organized the Besoros Tovos campaign - ensuring that Tmimim from around the world would share as many good tidings as possible with the Rebbe, with the organizers (and participants) receiving encouraging responses from the Rebbe.

After his marriage to the daughter of Rabbi Yosef Avraham Heller, one of the Crown Heights Rabbonim and head of the Crown Heights Kollel Avreichim, he settled in the neighborhood and began serving as a Mashpia at Oholei Torah Crown Heights and as a Rosh Mesivta at the Central Tomchei Tmimim Yeshiva at 770.

Alongside his educational roles, in 1997 he began working in the outskirts of the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn to spread Toras HaChassidus among the neighborhood's Charedi residents. For this purpose, he began publishing a weekly newsletter with pearls from general Chassidic teachings and from the teachings of our Rebbeim, as well as conducting farbrengens and Chassidus classes with the residents.

As part of his shlichus in Williamsburg, he also opened a Chabad House in the non-Charedi part of the neighborhood, where Shliach Rabbi Shmuel Lane serves under his direction.

Additionally, he gives a weekly shiur on the Rebbe's maamarim for Hebrew speakers at 770.

In 2021, he composed the niggun "Shir Hamaalos El Hashem" for Kapitel 120 together with Hatomim Yanki Halevi Horowitz, and this niggun was chosen as the "Chosen Niggun."

He is known for his unique style in farbrengens and shiurim that demands inner work from his mekuravim. He is also known for his special integration of nigleh and Chassidus.

Rabbi Feldman is a distinguished student of several great Chabad mashpiim, while maintaining an independent and original way of thinking. In burning issues in the world of Chabad, he paves a path that merges different approaches. He enjoys popularity among many students who benefit from his guidance.
