The Pinnacle Technical Resources was born with the entrepreneurship of Nina Vaca
Nina Vaca arrived at Los Angeles at the age of two as an immigrant from Quito, Equador. The goal of her family was to build up a business where all their children will not find it difficult to participate. Vaca observes today that her father had once stated, ‘the key to American dream is through entrepreneurship’. But perhaps Mr. Hernan Alfredo Vaca did not imagine that his daughter would evolve as a fantastic entrepreneur just at the age of thirty-five. Nina Vaca’s Pinnacle Technical Resources is an information technology business that had a reported turnover of $60 million in 2006.
After arriving at America, Alfredo started a travel agency and planned to have five chains of the same for his five kids. The children were required to take a bus downtown in order to witness the progress and working of the family business. After Nina’s graduation, Alfredo got killed in a robbery and decided to put the company for sale while she did her major in business from the Texas State University.
She discovered her ‘talent for attracting clients’ while she was working with a technology company in New York and Dallas. At 25, she opened Pinnacle and began recruiting IT talent for companies that required aid to administer their computer systems. She had found out a way on how to become a millionaire.
