Dear Family, I’m sorry for not spending time with you these past 8 years. But I finally got my green card. This is the story of how I moved to the US, built a venture-backed startup, and secured a green card, in almost a decade.

Twitter makes it easy to feel like "you’re not doing enough" - 14 yo's building a startup - 10,000 followers in 6 months - $1M ARR This is a reminder: - Be patient - Be consistent - Focus on yourself Don't compare your Day 1 to someone’s Day 1000 Time + Consistency = Growth🌱

It all started in 2010. It was a regular weekend & my parents took me to the movies. We watched The Social Network. I was blown away. I was ready to follow Zuckerberg’s steps in building a tech giant.

A few years ago, if you ask this small-town girl how to be deemed as “Extraordinary” by the United States of America, I wouldn’t even dream of answering it. What is extraordinary? Working at Google? Building Google? It was a fantasy.
