His work primarily focuses on shifting the global, ideological, and political conversations regarding the Jewish People and Israel, uniting sectors of Israeli society, locating and bringing awareness to the disconnected Tribes of Israel worldwide, and generating innovative ways to combat antisemitism.

In 2018, Rudy was chosen for the 36 Under 36 Award of most influential Jews in the world for his dedication and activism. In 2020, he completed his MBA in Israel and founded the documentary series "We Were Never Lost", which highlights the stories of disconnected and unrecognized communities of Jews worldwide.
