A 32-year-old woman born into an immigrant family and raised by a single mother has now found entrepreneurial success alongside her mother as a small business owner.
Annie, a well-educated woman, didn’t exactly know how it was all going to pan out after graduating from Boston College in 2013, and then receiving a Master’s degree in Education from Johns Hopkins University while teaching students English in inner-city Baltimore, Maryland.
Her master’s degree from Johns Hopkins was free while she taught ESL (English as a Second Language) with the Teach for America program.
She then enrolled at Harvard in 2015 in a one-year Policy and Management program, which allowed her the opportunity to explore entrepreneurial projects while on campus.
Annie was traveling abroad (see photos above), and that is when her mother Sarah called her, with a unique proposal that piqued her interest in entrepreneurship.
