The environment has always been a passion of mine. I vividly remember in kindergarten wondering what happened to all the food that we threw away, and single-use plastic has always seemed illogical to me. So when I heard about the TAU program, I was excited to sign up and take my passion to a new practical and professional level.
I was surprised to learn that, while the program is geared towards an international audience and exposes students to global perspectives, there is a healthy dose of the local outlook on environmental and social issues, derived from the professors' and lecturers' knowledge and expertise regarding the Israeli ecosystem.Currently, I'm focusing on delivering the best service to my clients so that we can get through this challenging time with the same results and value given at the end of the process. However, I am also working on several personal projects in the sustainability world tied to shaping consumer attitudes, developing accessible products and services, and, overall, making sustainability a mainstay in the residential environment. 
My future goal is to do for the home unit and individuals what I currently do for companies and larger organizations. Just like nature, if all of the pieces aren't working together towards the same goal, it will never be achieved. 
I'm balancing my time between entrepreneurial aspirations, career, and my personal life, as well as time for surfing!
Long-term, I'm hoping to play a part in the sustainable startup revolution, meaning the future of the high-tech world that is driving towards helping more people achieve economic and social equality and also environmentally good and shared value.
