Max Pivo is thrilled to serve as the Manager of Partnerships at The iCenter, where he helps connect people, programs, and possibilities across the landscape of Israel education. His work focuses on building meaningful relationships with partners and collaborators, designing initiatives that bring educational vision to life, and ensuring that The iCenter’s resources and expertise reach the individuals and institutions that can benefit from them most.
Max brings to this role a rich background in educational content and facilitation. He previously served as The iCenter’s Education Content Coordinator, where he developed new resources and designed creative approaches to using them in real-world, in-person settings—always with the goal of helping learners and educators find their unique entry points into Israel education.
After graduating from Dartmouth College, where he studied the Middle East, religion, and linguistics, Max earned his M.A. in Middle Eastern Studies from Harvard University. Before joining The iCenter, he spent his summers at Ramah Wisconsin as a counselor and Rosh Eidah (unit head), where his love for immersive, relational education took root.
What are you happiest doing outside of work?
Watching baseball! I was born (and intend to die) a Yankees fan, but I have a soft spot for the Cubs too. Most of my free time is spent roaming the MLB App stat page like a normal person.
