"As an Asian immigrant with a very mixed upbringing, I grew up in an era where diversity felt like a hindrance. Now raising a child of both Latin and mixed Asian heritage, I feel humbled and honored that he is growing up at a time when diversity is increasingly celebrated as a strength," said Justin Choi, Founder and CEO of Nativo.
"At Nativo, we bring together diverse talents from different backgrounds and life experiences to deliver on our mission. It's core to who we are. We are grateful that organizations like NMSDC exist to recognize companies that put diversity at their core."
