The beginnings
My story
Emigrating from my native Colombia to New York City in the late 90s, at the beginning of the World Wide Web revolution, was not a coincidence; it was destiny and the beginning of this journey.
It had not been an easy road. Having no tech experience and transitioning from being a journalist and news reporter to an entrepreneur was not a stroke of luck. I felt in love with the idea of working remotely, having time flexibility, and achieving financial independence. Little I knew that this mere idea would lead me later on to have my online business
Before becoming an entrepreneur, I worked in Digital Marketing for a handful of companies while advancing a master’s degree in Digital and Interactive Marketing at New York University. It was a great experience that paved the path to entrepreneurship.
The idea of owning a business started when I gave birth to my first child, and I was determined to raise my family without sacrificing my professional life. I began to explore business ideas that suited my new lifestyle. My first product, NoseSecret®, was something so simple but with great potential. I didn’t re-invent the wheel; I made a better version of it. Within a few years, I was making a 6 figure yearly income working from home, on my schedule, and in my terms.
Since then, the long working hours and the determination to make it happen have landed multiple opportunities, publishing my first book, giving numerous talks, and enjoying teaching others how to start a successful business online.
