But despite her incredible credentials and experience, she ran into numerous immigration challenges So like most immigration tech entrepreneurs, she started thinking: “Why was it so hard for me to get the visa I feel most qualified for? Perhaps there’s a better way?” Thus Alma was born, a platform that “simplifies immigration for founders, technologists, researchers and others at the top of their fields.“ So, here’s what we’re going to talk about on this episode: 🔹 Aizada’s early life in Kyrgyzstan, practicing law at home, and why she chose Harvard law school 🔹 Aizada’s immigration experience and challenges, and how it inspired her to think about a solution 🔹 How Aizada left her legal career, her entrepreneurial experiences, and how it led to Alma 🔹 What Alma does today, how immigration lawyers are involved, and her thoughts on legal tech And more!
