David Kerendian

Hi! My name is David Kerendian, and I am a senior in the College from Los Angeles, CA, majoring in Economics with minors in Philosophy and Middle Eastern Studies. I am excited to serve as Co-President of Penn Hillel this year.

Hillel has been one of the most meaningful parts of my Penn experience. It has been the place where I’ve built some of my closest friendships, found a strong Jewish community, and been given the opportunity to take part in programs that have significantly enhanced my time at Penn.

Before serving as Co-President, I was involved in Hillel through the Jewish Leadership Initiative, the Habibi Fellowship, and by serving as a student leader in the OCP and Shira Chadasha. Outside of Hillel, I am involved with the Weingarten Center as a student tutor, Wharton Alliance, Kite and Key, and Alpha Epsilon Pi.

Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, ideas, or just want to talk. I would love to hear from you and help you find your place at Penn Hillel!
