I started PINC because I lived this experience! I'm passionate about giving young women professional and personal growth. And finally, PINC ismy passion because I believe empowering and educating young women on an international level is the key to building confident and innovative leaders of the future! Our mission is to help bridge the gender gap by giving young women a competitive edge on their resume with international experience. I hope you take this journey with me... -Lisette Miranda, PINC CEO & Founder
