Thanks and good luck, Max Azzarello

Maxwell Azzarello, who joined Arts Build Communities as a student worker in September 2011 and took on more and more challenging tasks, has joined Nestio, a New York City-based real estate listing.

Max provided important research and administrative support as four units at the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy were consolidated into Arts Build Communities, and it moved to becoming a university-wide initiative of Rutgers University.  He conducted research on economic trends in the creative sector, and played a pivotal set of roles in the 2012 Create A Place conference.

Upon completing his Master in City and Regional Planning in May, Max will set off to work as an administrator for Nestio, a Manhattan-based real estate listing start-up, where he will be serving clients and applying social media and other Web 2.0 technologies to the field. Though he will miss ABC, Max looks forward to reading literature on the beach and playing with his new kitten, Kyle.


Thanks for your service, Max and good luck with the new job.
