Welcome back to another episode! In this episode, we chat with ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mika Reyes, Co-Founder and CEO of Parallax, a startup that aims to help people send money and get paid from abroad faster and cheaper. She moved to the U. S. to study at Wesleyan University. Prior to starting her own company, she worked in product roles at LinkedIn, Kumu, and Ripcord. Mika is very passionate about broadening access through tech in emerging markets like her home, the Philippines, and the rest of Southeast Asia. She currently lives in New York City and is an avid dancer. Mika talks about: - growing up in the Philippines - navigating culture shock after she moved to the US for college - why she likes to write and vlog her journey in tech - what led to her leaving a comfortable job to start her own company To stay updated on future episodes, please follow Founders Without Borders on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linkedin⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
