When Stephanie Nuesi came to the US just five years ago, she barely spoke English. But she persevered—within just one year, she learned the language and nabbed her first job. To date, she considers her greatest career accomplishment to be founding Max Up before the age of thirty: Max Up is a career consulting firm that specializes in helping college students and professionals land their dream careers while maximizing their potential, and Nuesi’s goal is help the Latino community bridge the gaps between talent and corporations. A driven and empathetic CEO, Nuesi seeks to encourages people around the world to be proud of their roots and background.
