Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, California, Aytakin aims to develop a unique sisterhood that supports each other and the daily challenges they face.Aytakin's personal struggles as an immigrant and mother of two inspired her to build a global community that supports immigrant women of all cultures. Her challenges began soon after she moved to the United States from her home country Azerbaijan. Despite her successful career back home in media education & marketing, it was especially difficult for her to both integrate herself into a new society and rebuild her career once again. Migrating to a new country comes with its unique challenges. Aytakin struggled to keep her confidence high as she felt her lack of cultural integration significantly held her back from finding job opportunities.It wasn’t long before Aytakin began leading and managing the Femigrants community as a volunteer while she worked at another full-time position. For the next 3 years Ayakin organized 15 local events around the Bay Area, published inspirational success stories, and posted videos of important immigrant representatives. Through growing popularity Femigrants was soon published in business & tech magazines such as Forbes and Intuit. All this was possible through the help of over 50 volunteers and local companies sponsoring the events.To join Femigrants' community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/FemigrantsTo follow us on Linkedin: https://dk.linkedin.com/company/femigrants-foundation
