Immigrant Entrepreneur: Irina Alexander

Irina met her husband in China while working abroad on a summer tour program. She never initally wanted to move to America, but because she married an American (while in China) she moved to Texas in her early 20s.

She didn't have any family or friends in Texas, and on top of that, her husband had to go to work - overseas. She was left all alone. There were many struggles in her immigrant journey from handling basic phone conversations, to driving to the grocery stores and getting around.

Irina and her husband decided to launch an HVAC company, but little did she know she was about to run the show all by herself. Not only that, she had 2 kids under the age of 2.

Her immigrant entrepreneur journey is one of a kind, because she was running her business in a male dominated field.

This episode is filled with invaluable entrepreneurship advice and she shares her entire story and the struggles along the way.
