This week, Federation is proud to spotlight NEXTGen’s final co-chair. Born and raised in Queens, New York, Talia Fuld is a two-time graduate of the University at Buffalo, where she earned a degree in Biomedical Engineering, followed by a Master of Business Administration. Since graduating, she has been building her career as a Product Manager at Nissha Medical Technologies. No two days at Nissha are ever the same; in Talia’s role she is analyzing monthly sales targets, helping create and promote marketing materials, and travels with her team to expand brand growth.

Talia has been active in the Jewish community by participating in Jewish youth groups, volunteering for some of the largest teen gatherings around the US, and helping cultivate Jewish friendship and growth post college. Talia’s commitment to the Jewish community in Buffalo has spread to her time as a UB student, and now as a young adult serving NEXTGen, Buffalo Jewish Federation’s young adult group. In the roles of NEXTGen Co-Chair and KOLOT Fellow, she and her co-chairs focus on fostering meaningful community engagement for young adults by organizing a wide range of events, from the most recent Purim celebration to planning the upcoming summer ice cream social. She is passionate about growing the future of NEXTGen, while combining it with all the best things Buffalo has to offer.

Outside of community engagement, Talia enjoys visiting new cities around the world and is currently learning how to golf. While Buffalo has a lot to offer in the wintertime, she is most excited for true Buffalo summer!
