Diana Mao, the co-founder, president, and CEO of Nomi Network, developed a passion for human trafficking service work during a research fellowship trip to rural Cambodia while pursuing a finance degree at NYU. “After we had interviewed [a finance client], he proceeded to offer my male colleague his daughter, in broken English,” she says. “You like her, you take her,” the client said. Mao’s travel group had also seen girls as young as 12 with foreign men on the streets near Phnom Penh’s brothels. “That really opened my eyes to the issue,” she says. When she returned to New York in late 2008, Mao joined a business consulting firm and began conceptualizing what would become Nomi Network. Spending her nights and weekends building out the nonprofit, she returned to Cambodia and interviewed about a dozen anti-trafficking organizations before deciding to dedicate her efforts toward workforce development.
