Naomi is a sophomore from California, but was born in Israel, although almost every generation in her family was born in a different country. She loves living in New York City and exploring all the places and cultures. She is thinking of majoring in Physics or Mathematics with a minor in Spanish. When she’s not studying or working with the Theatre Department’s Production team, Naomi loves to spend time around the city or on campus with her friends – taking a trip to the Met or sitting in the residence halls knitting. Naomi is also really passionate about animal rights (almost a crazy cat lady), helping at local non-profit shelters and is thinking about animal science as a career. She has interned and volunteered at a non-profit arts education center in California, working with children and their parents to create a community to share art and express themselves, which still doesn’t explain why she always has paint or clay on her hands. Naomi cannot wait to meet all the new first-year students and learn all about them!
