Arbor is the

quintessential college town:

a

walkable, spirited campus community that attracts
thousands of top- tier undergrads each year. Often

overlooked is the fact that it attracts

a

growing cohort of

post-graduate young Jewish professionals

-

several who

grew up in the greater Jewish Detroit area.
David Zimet is one of those young professionals. He

was

and moved to Ann Arbor at age 4.
He attended the Hebrew Day School of Ann Arbor for several

born in

Herzliya, Israel,

years before going to Ann Arbor public schools. Now the
Eastern Michigan University graduate is a digital marketing

specialist at Domino's

Pizza.

plan after graduating college was to move to Chicago and

enjoy big-city living for a few years. The universe had differ­

plans me, and I was fortunate to land a great job in digi­
marketing at Domino's. That kept me in Ann Arbor, and I
couldn't be happier:'
