Jona Babi was born and grew up in Elbasan, Albania in a family full of engineers. She decided to study Computer Engineering since she found it fascinating that through "those boxes" a.k.a. computers in 2005 people could talk with a camera to other people across the word and could look up any information they needed. Jona studied Computer Engineering in Greece. She finally got to make her American dream come true by moving to Silicon Valley and getting a Masters in Electrical Engineering from Stanford.

After working for several years at large technology companies such as Apple in California, Jona wanted to get more experience in the finance industry and the east coast culture. She moved to Boston to get a Masters of Business Administration at Harvard Business School. After Harvard, she worked at Amazon and now is currently working at Google as a Product Leader in New York City.

Jona is passionate about helping Albanian students to get accepted into universities in the states. She also loves preparing her friends to ace their interviews and get jobs in large technology companies.
