 Yavneh Board

Hello Yavneh! I am from Lawrence, NY and I’m a Barnard junior studying Computer Science. On campus, you can find me spending hours at a time in Hewitt, running in Riverside Park, or studying on the 4th floor of Kraft. I’m so excited to meet you all and for the amazing year ahead!

Hello Yavneh! I am a Junior in Barnard studying Chemistry and I am from Cleveland Ohio (yay out of town)! On campus you can find me “studying” in Lefrak, the second or fourth floor of Kraft(depending on how much work I want to get done) or spending an unnecessary amount of time in Hewitt. I am so excited to be your VP Chessed and cant wait to continue improving our community with all of you!

Hi Yavneh! My name is Sophie and I am so excited to be serving as your VP of Communication. I'm a sophomore in CC and likely majoring in Applied Math. Some of my hobbies include playing sports and watching Jeopardy. If you're ever down to play some sports, fangirl over Alex Trebek, or anything at all, please reach out!

Hey Yavneh! My name is Sarah, I’m from Brooklyn, I’m a Barnard sophomore studying English and I’m so excited to be planning all things education. Most days you’ll find me rewatching SNL clips, perusing ASOS or catching up on daf yomi but don’t let that stop you from coming over to say hi! Can’t wait to learn with you all!

Hi! I am a Sophomore at Barnard College from New Rochelle, NY, and I am immensely excited to take on the role of VP Shabbat Chag. Some things I love: cooking (I take great pride in my green sweet potato soup), biology/research, singing, and shabbat of course! Please feel free to reach out with any questions!

Hi everyone! I’m a sophomore at Barnard studying computer science and I’m so excited to be your new VP social! I’m originally from Boston (yay out of towners) but I love exploring the city. Catch me running around the met, skating in Bryant Park or studying on the third floor of Mil. Can’t wait to meet you all!

Gabbinate

I am a Freshman in SEAS studying computer science. I was born and raised in the city that never sleeps, and I’ve never left because sleep is for the weak. In the rare moments I’m not in Hillel or LeFrak, I’m probably at a New York sporting event. If you ever want to talk about the Parsha, you can find me at the Bima on Mondays, Thursdays, and Shabbatot.

Hi there! I'm a native of The Other Side of Teaneck, NJ, and after spending the past two years learning in Migdal Oz, have finally made it to Barnard with plans to study psychology while minoring in philosophy and religion. Also, yes, we can talk about the T in my name, but I assure you, it's not that exciting a story. Hopefully it will be the beginning of many more engaging conversations, though, and I'm looking forward to having those with you all!

I am a first year in CC studying Economics. I come from the distant holy city of Teaneck, NJ. In my youth I matriculated at the Mesivta of Frisch and then spent a year (just one) at Yeshivat Hakotel in the other holy city of Jerusalem. I am excited to take up the mantle of gabbai - a role hereto filled by many heilige yiddim - and dedicate these two years of my college experience solely to the wonderful people of Yavneh.
