When I started traveling and working remotely I kept thinking is this just a phase? Or will I eventually have to go back to the U.S. and start a "real" career?
Then I met today’s guest, Wes Wagner, and he proved to me you absolutely can.
Wes is a 24-year-old startup founder who typically splits his time between Indianapolis in the U.S and Medellín, Colombia. When I met Wes two years ago in Medellín, he was 22-years old, fresh out of college, and spearheading marketing for a silicon-valley based startup called Microverse. Last year he went through Y Combinator, the most prestigious startup accelerator in the world. Now he’s combining all that experience to start his own tech company.
What I love about Wes is that he lives a life that bridges many cultures and communities. Simultaneously, He’s a Spanish-speaking lover of Latin America, he’s plugged into the Silicon Valley tech scene, and he’s a self-described “family man” that loves the Indianapolis 500, boating, and mudding.
Wes believes you can have an incredible career while living abroad, and that you can plug in with world-class communities regardless of your physical location. In this episode, he explains how.
