Aviram was born and raised in Qiryat Bialik, a periphery town near Haifa, and currently lives in Nesher, close to the Technion campus. He served in the Israel Defense Forces’ Armored Corps – first as a combat soldier and then in Tank Commander Training. Discharged with the rank of first sergeant, he currently serves the IDF in active reserve duty.
In his spare time, Aviram enjoys traveling and hiking around Israel, and reading about global economics. And, he is a self-professed basketball fan. He also volunteers to return to his hometown high school to talk to the students about the importance of an academic education.
Looking ahead, he hopes to lead a biotech company in Israel in the R&D or business development sector.
