Hannah Newman
Sara Rashti
Michael Schulman
Daniel Woznica

Executive VP – Lauren Cohen
VP of Services – Daniella Cohensedgh
VP of Jewish Affairs – Chloe Sabbah

We sat down with President and Vice President, Lauren and Kayla Cohen (no, they’re not related). Check out our Q&A below:
|
What’s your favorite thing about each other? Lauren: I really like the way her eyelashes curl up. It really gets me. It makes my happiness fly up like a little pigeon. Kayla: I like that she has the most common name in the school but is so different than everyone else. Lauren: Awww that’s so cute! Do you guys have a nickname? Lauren: We’re the dream team. Kayla: Yeah. Lauren: Cohen Squared. Kayla: That’s so unoriginal. We’ll think about it. What makes you guys different? Kayla: Lauren is the funny one and knows how to make everyone smile and I’m the serious one. Lauren: We bring the perfect balance. What famous duo are you guys? Kayla: Cheech and Chong. Lauren: Ted and Robin from How I met Your Mother. Kayla: Ghormeh sabzi and rice. Any secret talents? Lauren: I can fold my tongue in half. Kayla: I trip over myself. Favorite place at Milken? Both: Chava’s fruit stand. What are you going to do for the school? Lauren: I think, I’m gonna bring a blender to Chava, so it can be like Chava smoothies or Chava Juice… I promise you right now [that you will come to] every event. YES YOU! Where you would rather be right now: Kayla: Well, I should be at basketball conditioning right now… Lauren: The beach, ‘cause the beach is my scene! Lauren: We are gonna work, work work this out… (pause) Her eyebrows get me everytime. Kayla: You said it was my eyelashes. Lauren: It’s both. |
