Campus Rabbi and Associate Directors of Lubavitch House at Penn
Levi was born and raised on the mountain in Crown Heights, NY. He studied Talmud, Chassidus, and Kabbalah at the prestigious academies of Oholei Torah and “770” where he was also ordained as a rabbi. As a Yeshiva student he served in the Chabad “Peace Corp” in numerous locations such as Sydney, Berlin, Kazakhstan and Estonia.
Levi’s interests span a wide spectrum, from pursuing Rabbinic specializations to editing and publishing his grandfather’s “Memoirs of the Gulag” in Yiddish.
He and Nechama have served as campus rabbi and associate directors of Lubavitch House at Penn since 2000. Levi enjoys engaging faculty and students in discussion about Judaism and its relationship with the many disciplines it encounters at the University.
