After his marriage in 5725, the Rebbe appointed him as his shliach to New Jersey. Upon arrival, he immediately began establishing Chabad institutions in the state, primarily a yeshiva and a rabbinical ordination institute, which grew over the years to peak at 280 students annually. The institute's ordination certificates are recognized worldwide, with leading contemporary poskim examining students, including Israel's Chief Rabbi Mordechai Eliyahu and Rabbi Menashe Klein.

Since his appointment to New Jersey, he built an empire of Torah and chesed institutions, including 50 synagogues, a Talmud Torah, yeshiva, rabbinical institute, and dozens of Chabad Houses in universities and city centers.

In 5745, the Rebbe appointed him as a member of Agudas Chassidei Chabad. He worked to strengthen the Crown Heights neighborhood and recover stolen books from the Lubavitch Library during the seforim trial.

In 5746, he joined with Rabbi Berel Shemtov, Rabbi Simcha Zirkind, Rabbi Shmuel Kaplan, and Rabbi Yisroel Shmotkin to establish the Machne Israel Development Fund (MIDF). This initiative gathered wealthy donors who contributed large sums to the Rebbe's causes and received extended personal meetings with the Rebbe in return, known as "yechidus for givirim."

When the Rebbe's Reshimos were discovered in 5755, he participated in the special meeting discussing their publication options and contributed to the final decision to begin their public release.

He passed away on 23rd of Teves 5785, at age 90.
