The Build Fellowship changed my life for the better! Not only did it do so in the most obvious way (set up an immigration pathway in the U.S.) but it also helped me discover my own leadership and management skills.

The Build Fellowship has put together a superb program. We were able to get our employee from overseas and shepherd his H-1B capped process. Highly recommend as the complete end-to-end solution for your H-1B needs.

Shritesh is a foreign national from Nepal, and came to the United States in 2015 to pursue his masters. He had a penchant for two things: entrepreneurship and mentorship—two pursuits he wanted to continue in the United States, a place he saw limitless in opportunities. After getting selected for The Build Fellowship by Open Avenues, Shritesh created an industry-based project through his company, Remix Labs where he was assigned a Queens College student named Wilber.
