After spending countless hours pouring over ancient Aramaic texts with his chavrusa (study partner), Yaakov Miller, Tuvia is gaining the necessary skills to become the future leader of Modern Orthodoxy throughout the world. Tuvia plans to model all high schools after his alma mater Boca Raton's Weinbaum Yeshiva High School and to make YU the capital of Judaism worldwide. "I cannnot wait for the day when I am King of the Jewish people sitting in my big fat office in Belfer Palace looking down at the rest of the world,"said Tuvia. Tuvia plans on dressing up as Yeshiva University this Purim and walk the streets of Meah Shearim. Unfortunately, Tuvia is currently unavailable for dating at this time, please try back at a later date.
