Immigrant Entrepreneur: Nirit Rubenstein

Nirit came to the United States when she was 4 years old but she still experienced struggles as an immigrant. Her household only spoke Hebrew and she only picked up English in grade school which made it extremely difficult to connect with other classmates.

She remembers her parents talking about how McDonald's was a once a month treat for them and how all of their clothes were second hand.

Her dad couldn't get a job for a period of time until he finally decided to volunteer at a mechanical shop. He soon took over the business and became a successful entrepreneur.

Nirit's journey to immigrant entrepreneurship really stemmed from watching her father go through his entrepreneurial successes, but her tenacity and drive was the key that propelled her to launch a successful credit repair company, Dovly.
