We are extremely proud to welcome one of the United States' newest citizens, Jose David Cermeño Perez. Jose came to our club back in 2012-13 as an exchange student from Venezuela, all wide eyed about Rotary. He was involved with the music and theatre department at high school, with a high point starring as Bernardo in West Side Story.

Our former exchange student who returned to his turbulent home country after a senior year at Beverly High School.  He later made entry back to the US to attend Endicott College with the support of Beverly Rotary and the late Dr. Richard Wylie, President of Endicott College.  Jose has informed us that he is now a US citizen as of January 25 this year.

His time here was one of preservation and persistence, graduating Magna Cum Laude from Endicott. He now lives in New York City with his marriage partner and is a financial analyst for Luxottica Eyewear.

Let's all welcome him to this 370 million strong melting pot we call the United States as a cherished new citizen.

Welcome Jose! Glad to have you aboard! We love you!
