with an Israeli business called 
Envisage, which does rebrand-
ing for high-end projects. 
Rosenfeld researched the design 
market, rebranded the compa-
ny’s LinkedIn and worked to get 
Envisage featured in local design 
magazines.
Students like Rosenfeld who 
enroll in TAMID often work 
with up to six or seven different 
companies in Israel, building up 
their resumes and getting real-
life experience in business and 
consulting.
“Every semester, you get put 
on a new project,
” Rosenfeld 
explains. Still, students aren’t 
simply placed. Israeli companies 
pick and choose which students 
are the right fit for their busi-
ness, adding another level of 
competitiveness to the program 
as applicants compete for open 
positions with students across 
other TAMID chapters nation-

wide.
Students studying finance can 
also work in the “fund” sector of 
TAMID, which includes a great-
er focus on stock pitches and 
other finance-related matters.

MAKING WAVES WHILE 
MAKING HISTORY
Now, as she gears up for her 
fourth semester with TAMID, 
Rosenfeld is also entering the 
program as the first sophomore 
president in the chapter’s his-
tory.
Her role will include oversee-
ing the GWU chapter, working 
with TAMID national advisers, 
and maintaining good stand-
ing and fundraising efforts on 
behalf of the organization.
Rosenfeld is also working 
on rewriting bylaws to make 
TAMID clearer for new mem-
bers. “This semester, we redid 
the entire education curriculum 

for TAMID,
” she explains of 
other recent efforts to make the 
local program more accessible.
Overall, Rosenfeld recom-
mends TAMID to any busi-
ness-savvy college students 
interested in working with other 
cultures or those who are pas-
sionate about Israel.
While the ongoing Israel-
Hamas war has modified some 
opportunities, many projects, 

like the ones she’s undertaking, 
haven’t been impacted by the 
geopolitical events.
“Israelis in general are pow-
erhouses,
” she says, “which I 
appreciate and admire. The way 
they work is very to the point, 
which in business is a great 
quality.

to-day operations. Together, they 
fundraise, hold ice cream socials 
and create opportunities for 
nursing students of all cohorts 
and backgrounds to connect, 
network and socialize.
Membership per semester 
costs $50 for new members and 
$25 for returning members.
“I was so proud of myself and 
the entire executive board that 
believed in the same image,
” 
Miller, a Hillel Day School 
graduate and Detroit resident, 
explains. “It’s been a really nice 
experience to see people as 
interested and passionate as I 
am.
”
Still, nursing is no easy feat. 
Outside of school and her 
current job at Henry Ford 
Hospital downtown as a nurse 
extern, Miller spends her free 
time volunteering at Eastern 

Market and other local farmers’ 
markets around the city.
Gardening and working with 
produce, she says, is a great way 
to de-stress.
The warm-weather seasons 
are also busy with hosting 
and planning welcome back 
barbecues and other events for 
nursing students and fraternity 
members, which Miller calls 
“extremely gratifying.
”
“It’s so nice to see students 
starting out in their program 
excited to be able to join,
” Miller 
says. “I see my nursing friends 
on campus now and I say hi to 
them and we give each other 
hugs.
“There’s just much more of 
a community now,
” she adds. 
“Before, it was much more 
homework-based and we would 
do assignments together, but not 
much else.
