From Bankruptcy to Success: Melissa Kwan Behind the Stand

    • Entrepreneurship

As a first generation immigrant from Hong Kong, Melissa used her grit, perseverance and sheer drive to move up from her first job as a receptionist to selling her first company before the age of 35.

At one point Melissa only had 90 days of runway and hundreds of thousands of dollars in crippling debt. But she didn’t give up. She pushed through the most difficult parts of her life to get to build the freedom she has today.

Today, Melissa has a new venture [eWebinar](https://ewebinar.com/). eWebinar's mission is similar to her own, to enable people to live the life they want, by giving people back their time.
