After that, Aryuna decided to give back to the community and help immigrants find high qualified jobs. She joined a NY Accelerator to build a startup, but it turned out she had to have more experience. Later, Aryuna became a Director at a Venture fund. After that, she she joined a venture-backed company as a Co-founder. She led fundraising and GTM strategies and product development.
