I was kicked out of the US by the government. All because I booked a one-way ticket to chase my Silicon Valley dream. The last time I tried to move to San Francisco, I never made it past the border. 12 hours in a white detention room. Six months ago, I finally decided to fight for permanence and applied for an O-1 visa. I knew this is where I needed to be if I was serious about building a trillion dollar company. But today, it became official. The US now calls me an “extraordinary individual.” Shoutout Aizada Marat, Keith Lee, Abhinav Kumar and the rest of the Alma team for making this happen.
