Sarina Abramowitz is the founder and CEO of Remote Hero, a nearshore staffing company that places professionals from Latin America and the Caribbean with companies in the United States, Canada and Europe. She started the company in 2023 while completing a master's degree in counseling psychology, after helping friends in Argentina land roles with US companies in under a week. That background in psychology shapes how Remote Hero vets candidates: for how someone will actually work with a team, not just what their resume says. She is based in Miami Beach, Florida.
