the UC Berkeley Extension building, just a few short blocks

from the UC Berkeley campus.

Berkeley is a dynamic community and part of the larger

San Francisco Bay Area, the home of creative technology

pioneers such as Google, Facebook and Twitter. Here,

youll meet enthusiastic and accepting professionals who are

committed to achieving their dreams. The city of Berkeley

boasts a melting pot of traditions and welcomes diversity

with open arms.

Downtown Berkeley resides in an arts and entertainment

Through my IDP internship experience at the San Francisco

Center for Economic Development, I learned best practices to he

international businesses succeed in the Bay Area. This has been

very helpful in my current job at Opinno, an open innovation

network of entrepreneurs, investors and ideas.

I love the fact the I can have a positive impact on IDP students,

helping them define their professional paths. It is very important

that the interns feel part of the team during the time they are w

us, and they always play a main role at Opinno so that they canmake the most out of the internship.
