Why did I leave Argentina?
I left Argentina, and my story might resonate with you. As a dual degree MBA/MSBA graduate, I have always been passionate about machine learning, analytics, and digital marketing.
But there came a point when I couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. So, I decided to take a leap of faith and leave Argentina to restart my career in the United States.
Struggles and opportunities in Argentina:
In Argentina, I faced several challenges in the job market, such as economic instability and limited growth opportunities. Despite these hardships, I found success in founding Busst and Escuela Potencia, leading growth initiatives at Lanzallamas, and expanding HolaHello Studio’s presence in the US market. This duality of struggle and achievement made my decision to leave even more complex.
The decision to leave Argentina:
My decision to leave Argentina was fraught with mixed emotions. On one hand, I yearned for personal and professional growth and better job opportunities. On the other, I grappled with the uncertainty of leaving behind a familiar environment. In the end, the need for change and the potential for a brighter future drove me to take the plunge.
