Max S. – Innovation & Business, Summer 2018

“I am loving spending my summer in Israel! It started out with the Rochester Hillel Taglit-Birthright Israel trip where I was able to be run ragged as we toured all over Israel.

I then started my Business and Innovation Onward Israel program in Haifa. I am interning for the GMCE Haifa Hub, which is in innovation consulting company for start-ups. I am organizing a third age technology competition focused on anti-aging and loneliness prevention. In my off-time I explore Haifa. My highlights have been the Bahai Gardens, Dado beach, and the German Colony. I live in the Hadar area which is on the port side of the city and is extremely diverse. Over the weekends I have made frequent trips to Tel Aviv, but have also explored hiking in the north, Jerusalem, and Eilat.”
