Self Employed

And I have 10 other success stories just like these.

If you want to be the next one, DM me “3D” and I’ll share the next steps with you.

LinkedIn Ghostwriting

Self-employed

Why are you reading the Experience section of a non-celebrity writer from India?

It’s because I got you hooked on my story.

In 7 years as a fiction author, I have made that happen more times than I can remember.

When you write stories, you must hold the reader’s attention at all times or wave them goodbye.

A weak chapter? There’s Netflix to go back to.

A flat character? Good luck with the Amazon reviews.

A plot hole? You can end up on a Reddit thread (not for the good reasons). 

And even if you manage to nail the story . . .

. . . well imagine what it’s like to try to get them to read it in the first place.

Let me tell you, it’s not pretty.

But writing 2 books and 10+ short stories (and 357 others that never left my laptop) pays off.

It teaches you how to grab attention and keep it as long as you want.

It teaches you how to create characters and events readers care about.

It teaches you how to make people from the U.S., UK, and Germany read your story when they didn’t know you a month ago.

But the most important thing it teaches you, you must learn how to tell a good story.

Funny thing is . . .

. . . without that skill, I would never be able to tell my client’s stories today.

Today, my clients close 4 and 5-figure deals because of the stories I tell for them.

That’s how they position themselves as experts in their industry.

That’s how they build trust.

The point I’m trying to make?

I can do the same for you and your business.

Because no matter what you sell, one element remains constant –

You need stories to sell.

Let me help you tell yours.

Author

Freelance

Let’s cut to the chase.

You’re an expert in what you do but you don’t have 40+ hours/month to translate that expertise into your LinkedIn content.

You have a business to run.

You want an expert who can help you with it. Let’s see if I’m that person.

With great pride – and an equal measure of humility – I can say that in my 6 years as a content and copywriter, I have:

- Written 1,000+ pieces of content and copy.
- Helped websites rank on the first page of Google and grab featured snippets multiple times. 
- Worked with 50+ businesses.

How did I accomplish all of that?

Let me tell you one thing.

A combination of hard work, burning passion, and a “can-do” attitude will get you anywhere.

After my stint as a content and copywriter, I can proudly say I know more about writing than almost anyone in the game.

I can recognise what will hold the reader’s attention, what will make them come back, and pull the credit cards out of their wallets.

Want that for your business?

Great.

Shoot me a DM and let’s talk.

Freelance Content and Copywriter

Turning your Expertise into 4 and 5-figure deals on LinkedIn with my 3D Content Strategy

On paper, your business looks great - a converting offer, happy clients, and raving testimonials.

But something feels wrong. 

Your business is dependent on referrals and word-of-mouth marketing. 

No control over getting new leads every month. 

A fear gnaws at your mind, “What happens when the referrals dry up?”

That’s when you decide to jump on LinkedIn, thinking “5 posts/week and I’m gonna sign multiple new clients each month.”

Until you realise it’s not that easy.

Your posts fall on deaf ears, you’re wasting 40+ hours/month writing content, and your bank account doesn’t reflect your efforts.

You’ve tried:

- Listening to the influencer and running after likes & followers → Now you have tons of followers and no new clients.
- Grinding the comments all day → 5 hours a day wasted without anything to show for it.
- Cold pitching 50 people a day → 500 people now see you as a pushy salesperson they don’t want to work with.  

Nothing you can think of seems to work and now you’re getting desperate.

You’re afraid if things continue as they are, it’ll lead to:

- Business revenue being stuck at the same level as last year
- Wasting time and effort you should’ve spent on your business
- Working with toxic clients because “they help me pay the bills”

You’re on the wrong path.

What you need is a framework that helps you build trust, prove your expertise, get warm leads, and in turn, revenue. 

Don’t panic. There’s hope. 

You need a guide who can help you build that strategy and show you the right way while you focus on your business.

That’s where I come in.

With my 3-step Freedom Founders Framework, we will:

Step 1: Nail your 3Ws - who your ideal client is, what burning problem you solve for them, and what makes you different from people offering similar services.

Step 2: Develop your “Buy” strategy - We’ll optimise your profile to address your ideal client's pains and desires. 

We’ll build your content strategy that focuses on building trust, position you as their expert, and makes them reach out.  

3. Drive warm leads into your funnel - The exact DM framework I use to take ideal clients from a stranger to someone willing to work with us.

My results speak for themselves:

- A career coach generated $75,000+ in 8 months
- A solopreneur got 4 inbound leads in 21 days
- A Founder attracted $30,00+ in 6 months

I have more of these but LinkedIn says I’m out of characters. 

Back to you.

Are you ready to sign clients without feeling like a pushy car salesman?

Great.

Forbes & Business Insider-Featured Community Builder | Personal Branding Strategist | Forbes Nonprofit Council | Podcast Host "Verso Talk with Aytakin" | Double Gold Award Winner I Top100 Women in Tech by KSV |

💔 I moved to Silicon Valley with only $300 left in my pocket—and found myself walking door to door in San Francisco, begging for low-income jobs at restaurants, daycares, and elder care homes.

The hardest part?
I had just graduated in Social Media Marketing in the U.S., yet I couldn’t access the career I dreamed of. No guidance. No network. No money for coaching. Just rejection after rejection.

But I refused to let that be the end of my story. I rebuilt my career and broke into Fortune 500 tech companies—Instagram, Meta, NVIDIA & HTC VIVE.

At the same time, I built the Femigrants Foundation into a 30,000+ global community of founders, entrepreneurs, and tech leaders. Over the years, I’ve:

- Produced 200+ events in San Francisco, New York, London & Paris (from private dinners to global forums with 300+ attendees).
- Partnered with 50+ organizations across tech, investment & entrepreneurship.
- Led 150+ team members to deliver inclusive, high-impact experiences.
- Been featured in Forbes (twice), Business Insider, Yahoo Finance (twice), AP News, London Daily, and more.
- Received Global Awards in the U.K. & U.S.A

Now, I dedicate my work to making sure no immigrant, founder, or expat has to feel as invisible as I once did.

1️⃣ Community Building & Event Management
Companies often struggle to design communities or host events that drive loyalty, influence, and meaningful connections. I offer:

- Elegant, high-impact events—from curated leadership dinners to global forums.
- Community growth strategies that build loyal, engaged ecosystems.
- End-to-end management—from strategy and promotion to flawless delivery.

2️⃣ Personal Branding for Founders & Leaders
Too many entrepreneurs, executives, and expats remain invisible—overlooked by investors, clients, and partners in a noisy digital world. 

I offer:
- A LinkedIn strategy that attracts investors, partners, and press.
- Thought leadership positioning that elevates your influence.
- Access to speaking, media, and leadership opportunities.

3️⃣ Relocation & Access to Silicon Valley
Global founders, expats, and tech leaders often feel lost—without networks, guidance, or access to the right opportunities. 

I offer:
- Relocation guidance with insider tools and proven resources.
- Curated introductions to investors, mentors, and peer networks.
- Direct access to career opportunities, business growth, and Silicon Valley capital.

 If you’re building or growing a company, or preparing for your next big move, you don’t have to do it invisibly or alone!

We DID it!!! We successfully launched the Femigrants Chapter in San Francisco!

See the red-carpet photos from the Femigrants AI forum at Autodesk in San Francisco.

“It was the most well-organized AI event in the Bay Area. Every detail was well thought out”,  said one of the guests from Stanford University.

“Every time I come to Femigrants event, I say this is the best one. But you know how to surprise us with your creativity because we say “this is your best event” at every event”, said our loyal community member.

“I feel embarrassed that I didn't know about this organization. How could I miss events of such a powerful community before?!” said the guest.

Yes! At Femigrants, we don't just do trending topic events; we create unique and memorable experiences, we make an impact, we create opportunities for partnerships, collaboration, empowerment, and support.

Most people spend YEARS trying to meet a VP, diplomat, or investor.

You can meet all of them in ONE afternoon.

I’m sharing a new Autodesk video + announcing more speakers…

because if you’re even considering joining us at the Global Leaders Forum,
you’re running out of time.

Here’s the reality:
Access beats talent. Access beats effort. Access beats everything.

You can cold-message 100 leaders… or walk into a room where they’re literally shaking your hand.

This room includes:
	•	Autodesk executives
	•	VPs from Cisco, IBM, Plug & Play
	•	Global diplomats
	•	Investors + high-growth founders
	•	Partners who can change your next 12 months

And yes — you’ll also enjoy an Autodesk-sponsored Mediterranean menu, premium drinks, AND a red-carpet photo experience.
(SF lunches cost more than this ticket.)

⚠️ Seats are disappearing fast. Once we hit capacity, doors close.

Secure your spot before it’s gone.

🔗 Reserve your seat now: https://luma.com/zn1cml2j

I’ve always believed that how we dress is more than fashion.

It’s messaging.

Yes… I take dressing up very seriously.

Because elegance is confidence.
And confidence is influenced.

This time, the outfit meant even more.

The dress I wore at the Femigrants AI Forum Reception at Autodesk is designed by our community member, Anya.

Anya Belova is an immigrant founder who started her company Alova… while pregnant.

Imagine that.

Starting a business.
Carrying a child.

It is like taking care of twins.

Her vision:

Design clothes that make WOMEN feel POWERFUL, ELEGANT, & SEEN.

That’s the kind of story I prefer to wear on my body.

When I stepped onto the stage in her dress,
it wasn’t just beautiful.

It was symbolic.

It was a reminder that when immigrant women build, they build with heart, resilience, and a level of determination that you can feel in every stitch.

I’m proud to wear Alova.

I’m even more proud to support an immigrant founder who embodies everything we stand for at Femigrants.

If you’d like to support her vision, check out her website and explore her designs.

Every purchase supports a woman-owned immigrant business with a powerful story.

Visit Alova and show some love to her business.
🔗 The link is in the comments.

We spend 365 days running… and almost zero days remembering why.

Thanksgiving is the one moment that forces me to pause.
To breathe.
To reflect.

Every year, I invite 5–7 families to my home.
We share food.
We laugh.
And we answer two simple questions:

1. What am I grateful for this year?
2. What do I wish for next year?

Then we always end up teasing each other about what we said last year.
(I truly believe collective prayers work.)

This time, I want to publicly express my gratitude.

I’m grateful to God — for every opportunity, every lesson, every challenge, and every person He brought into my life.

I’m grateful to my family — for standing with me in both good days and hard days.

And I’m grateful to YOU ALL — my LinkedIn community, Femigrants community, board, sponsors, donors, volunteers, speakers, partners, and supporters.

If I tagged everyone, it would be thousands of people.

So let me say this loudly to all of you:

Thank you.
Thank you.
And thank you — for being part of my journey.

P.S. Yesterday, our community member Anya Belova, founder of ALOVA, sent me these beautiful flowers to express her gratitude.

Moments like this remind me how special it is to have kind, attentive, appreciative people in your circle.
People who notice.
People who give back.
People who truly care.

I wish you to be surrounded with people who notice and truly cares.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones. 
🧡

P.S. What are you grateful for this year?

Aytakin (Ika) Aliyeva 
Founder, Femigrants Foundation

I never planned to become an event creator.
Silicon Valley events pushed me into it. 😅

I kept attending events where:
- 🍕 the pizza was cold
- 🥗 there were salads but no forks
- 🪑 zero seats so everyone stood for 2 hours
 - 🎤 the same “fake VCs” repeated the same stories every month (yes… it happens!)

After continuous disappointments, I finally said:
 “ I can do better than this.”

So I created the first Femigrants event.
Then another.
Then fifty more.

And the Femigrants brand slowly became known for:
- great food
- elegant setups
- curated guest list
- selective speakers
- welcoming, warm atmosphere
- actual networking (not just standing around)
- and yes… and yes MOST of the time, a red carpet

People now tell me:
 “When I see Femigrants, I already know it will be beautiful, organized, and worth showing up for.”

And this November, I tested myself even more.
I organized 3 events in one month:
- 2 Femigrants Chapter Launches
- 1 Startup Friends & Family Event

I survived. They thrived. And every single one was elegant. 

So if your startup or company wants an event that doesn’t involve cold pizza, missing forks, or awkward “VCs”… I’ve got you.

I handle:
 - 🍷 drinks + bar
 - 🍽️ food + caterers
 - 📸 photo & video
 - 🎨 decor, art & aesthetic
 - 🤝 vendor coordination (aka “saving you from chaos”)

If you want an event people remember — for the right reasons — message me.

I, Aytakin Aliyeva🌛, built a community of global female immigrant leaders, Femigrants Foundation, and host elegant and memorable event experiences in Silicon Valley.

P.S. On behalf of the Femigrants Foundation, I express my gratitude to dear Vikram Dutt & Katie Harrell, for your incredible partnership.

In my culture, being a ‘good girl’ meant silence.
I learned to turn that silence into strength.”

I grew up in a home where my parents had completely different ways of raising us.

My mother was a teacher. She loved literature.

She was strict, quiet, and deeply respected.

She rarely smiled. 

She didn’t talk much, but when she did — everyone listened.
Her words always carried weight.

People came to her for advice when they couldn’t make hard decisions.

And when she entered a room, people would automatically change their behavior — out of respect.

My father was the opposite.

He was economist. Had 2 degrees from prestigious universities.

He was warm, talkative, and funny.
The kind of person who could light up any room with his stories and jokes.

He never hesitated to help others, even strangers. Whether someone needed advice or money, he was there.

For my mother, being a girl meant being like a white page. Once you get a stain on it, it’s almost impossible to clean.

She believed that a girl’s behavior defines her reputation.

My father saw it differently.

He believed I should be free to make my own choices, learn from mistakes, and find my path.

But they both agreed on one thing:

Their daughter must be well educated, and never depend on anyone — especially not on a man.

They would sacrifice everything to make sure I could stand on my own feet.

Now, looking back, I realize — they weren’t contradictory.

They completed each other.

From my mother, I learned patience, resilience, and mindfulness.

She taught me that strength doesn’t always need to be loud.

From my father, I learned leadership and optimism.

He taught me that even in hard times, your energy can lift others. It is contagious.

They both taught me to cross oceans for education and to never give up until I’ve tried every possible way.

Sadly, neither of them is here with me today.

But I hope they see how their love and discipline helped their daughter grow from zero into a resilient and positive woman leader in a different culture and country.

And this is exactly what I aim to keep as the Femigrants Foundation culture:
- Resilience
- Positivity
- Support

If you’d like to be part of this culture, join us next Friday at Autodesk Gallery in San Francisco.
To connect with diplomats, immigrant executives, VPs from Autodesk, Cisco, IBM, Plug and Play, and billion-dollar startups.

https://luma.com/zn1cml2j

Excited to share that I’ll be joining the One Way Summit in San Francisco.
A gathering fully dedicated to immigrant founders, investors, and operators.

And you already know… anything that brings immigrant leaders together speaks directly to my heart.

It aligns with my mission and the work we’ve been building at the Femigrants Foundation for years.

A huge thank you to Anna Yuan for the special invitation. 🙏

I truly appreciate being included in a space that celebrates the grit, resilience, and brilliance of immigrant entrepreneurs. 

I can’t wait to connect with so many of you at the summit.

This room will bring together 450+ immigrant and global founders, GPs, LPs, and operators — plus leaders from companies like Slack, Lyft, Branch, Mercury, and top firms including TECH WEEK by a16z, Khosla Ventures, DCVC, and more.

It’s exactly the kind of ecosystem I care about building — where immigrant voices aren’t sidelined… they’re center stage.

📅 December 10, 2025
📍 The Commonwealth Club, San Francisco
🌍 Organized by One Way Ventures

DM me for the code. 
 👉 https://lnkd.in/gRzA74cA

Note: *This is NOT an official partnership of the Femigrants Foundation with the One Way Summit. 

Can’t wait to meet many of you in person and celebrate the global talent shaping the future.

People see the photos.
They don’t see the battlefield behind them.

In less than 4 weeks, I pulled off 3 high-stakes events:

- Femigrants chapter launch in a brand-new market
- Another launch in a completely different market
- A paid partner’s 200+ guest startup event — scheduled one day before our Autodesk event


What happens behind the scenes:
• rebuilding vendor lists overnight
• replacing speakers in hours, not weeks
• negotiating with venues while answering 50 DMs
• solving problems people never even knew existed
• keeping everyone calm while your mind is juggling 10 fires at once
• delivering an elegant experience no matter what happens backstage

And through it all, my brain kept whispering:
“Maybe this is the month you fail…”

But every morning I gave myself ONE command:
“All three events will succeed.
You will handle everything.
Keep going.”

And they did.

Not because everything came easy,
but because I refused to let fear take the mic.

Lesson learned:
Your brain quits before you do.
Tell it a BETTER story.
BELIEVE in your ability first, and watch
how fast others start believing in you, too.

Now, I celebrate all three successful events not only in public,
but also internally in my brain.

—
P.S. If your startup or business needs someone who can design, manage, and execute high-pressure dinners, brunches, private events, or launch experiences 

I’m the person founders call when the room has to look elegant, run smoothly, and leave a lasting impression.

Send me a message. 
Let’s build something unforgettable.

💔 I didn’t build Femigrants Foundation  because I had a plan.

I built it because I had a story.

When I moved to America, I had no network, no community, no roadmap, and no one who looked like me in the rooms I dreamed of entering.

Like thousands of immigrants, I carried two suitcases:
- one with my clothes…
- and one with my dreams.

But dreams alone don’t help you find your first job.

They don’t help you understand a new system.
They don’t help you rebuild your confidence after you’ve left everything behind.

What helped?

People. Community. Someone believing in me before I believed in myself.

That’s why I created Femigrants — a place where immigrant women don’t have to knock on closed doors… because we build our own doors.

A place where no one feels “foreign”… because we all finally feel home.

Today is Giving Tuesday, and I’m asking for something I rarely ask for:

YOUR SUPPORT

Femigrants has grown from one immigrant woman with a vision…
to a global community of thousands who have:
- restarted careers
- built companies
- raised millions
- rebuilt confidence
- found mentors, partners, investors, and lifelong friends

But here is the truth most people don’t see:

Every event, every forum, every resource, every opportunity we create…
takes hundreds of hours, volunteers, and financial resources we don’t always have.

And yet, we never stop — because immigrants never stop.

If Femigrants has ever inspired you,
if you believe in the power of immigrant women,
if you want to be part of someone’s success story…

👉 Today is the day to stand with us.

No amount is small.
Every dollar helps someone rise.
Every donation becomes part of a chain reaction you might never even see — but someone will never forget.

Donate here: https://lnkd.in/eHms2kVN

Your kindness today will impact immigrant leaders for years to come.

Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you for believing in them.
Thank you for believing in what we’re building — together.

— Aytakin
Founder, Femigrants Foundation

I’m beyond excited to announce that Tiffany Odutoye, PMP, M.Ed. will be returning as the MC of our Global Leaders Forum: AI & Strategic Partnerships, hosted at Autodesk on November 14!

Tiffany flew all the way from Baltimore to MC our biggest forum yet at Microsoft in February 2025, where she captured hearts with her energy, grace, and authenticity.

Since then, we’ve continued working together on several projects behind the scenes — learning from each other, mentoring one another, and building a friendship rooted in shared values and complementary skills.

When I spoke with many potential MCs for this upcoming forum, I kept coming back to one name — Tiffany. 

Because Tiffany doesn’t join just to speak at the event… she speaks from the HEART OF Femigrants. ❤️

I can’t thank her enough for being the voice of our community, our supporters, and for being not just a collaborator — but a true friend and mentor.
That’s how partnerships and collaborations are built — through trust, shared purpose, and genuine connection.

🎟️ Join us at Femigrants’ Global Leaders Forum: AI & Strategic Partnerships on Nov 14 at Autodesk Gallery, San Francisco, and experience the power of relationships that lead to real collaborations.

P.S. Femigrants is a global community of female immigrant leaders in tech, business, and startups.

This event is open to ALL genders.

Too many brilliant leaders — especially immigrants and expats — stay invisible.

Not because they lack talent.
But because they lack access, visibility, and the right rooms.

And I want to change it.

So this December, I’m slowing down.
Not to rest.
But to serve differently.

- No Femigrants events.
- No productions.
- No noise.

Just focused, high-impact 1:1 work with founders, executives, business owners, and partners who want clear strategy on:

• SPEAKING opportunities
• personal BRANDING & online VISIBILITY
• COMMUNITY building & high-trust growth
• EVENT management (internal/external, private or corporate)
• PARTNERSHIPS & collaborations
• ACCESS to SILICON VALLEY investors & networks
• RELOCATION for global founders & expat leaders

January will be a storm:
- Annual Forum preparations.
- Partner event productions.
- Corporate collaborations.
- Long-term clients.

So if you want support, clarity, or access—
December is the only month where I have space.

Here’s how we can meet:

📍 San Francisco — 3 paid consultation slots
📍 South Bay — 4–6 paid consultation slots
📍 East Bay — flexible (coffee, lunch meetup or full strategy session, as I live here)

If you refuse to stay invisible in 2026 —
DM me “December” and I’ll share my available times.

P.S. 
What’s the #1 area you want to strengthen in 2026 — your brand, your network, your community, or your events?

Honored to share that I’ll speak at the “Show Her The Money” Film Screening & Women in Tech Panel on December 11 in Palo Alto.

This topic matters to me because I work with immigrant women founders every day — brilliant women building real companies. 

But still overlooked in a system where women receive less than 2% of VC funding. 

That number is a barrier I see up close.

It’s also a proud moment to share the stage with Femigrants community members Hila Lauterbach and Lital Cohen.

I’ll be joining an incredible lineup of leaders including:
- Cathy Shachaf – Founder & Co-CEO, Orlucent | Director, INTRO Life Sciences
- Alana Karen – Award-Winning Leader & Best-Selling Author
- Irina Berkon – CFO, Metallicus | Investor, Global Seeds
- Margarette Ell-Kesselman – Executive Director, Russian Speaking Women in Tech
- Dr. Lisa Dolev – Founder & CEO, Qylur Intelligent Systems and CATS2

Moderated by Lital Cohen – Founder of CORE & Communications Coach, Stanford. 

Hosted by Meytar Sorek-Hamer – Founder & CEO, ENVIDAH and Hila Lauterbach – Co-Founder, 10XGTM

We’re not gathering to repeat the 2% problem.
We’ll talk about how we move that number forward.

If you care about founders, funding, and real change, this is a conversation worth joining.
