I’m really happy I was able to travel to Germany and am forever grateful that MISTI allowed me to go. I worked in Corning’s optical communications division based in Berlin, Germany. I focused on consumer optical fiber testing and research as well as generally electronics testing. Working at Corning was an interesting and rewarding experience.
