Hillary Yip is from Hongkong where she went to school in Kellett school. Hillary came up with her millionaire idea when her mother sent Hillary and her brother to summer camp. The summer camp they were sent to was to help them speak Mandarin more fluently. After Hillary came home she thought of an idea like her summer camp, where everyone could connect with each other from around the world. She then started to enter her idea into several competitions and won all of them. Then she created her company and branched it out to sixty-plus countries.

“People treat me as a kid sometimes I get that. I’m 15, but I prefer being treated as an adult because I’ve had some experiences. I’m still learning, but that doesn’t mean you should count me out as immature.” says Hillary.

She created an education app where you can talk to others around the world about topics you are passionate about while learning about the other person’s culture through their conversations. The main purpose of this app is to help with learning a language in a fun way. This is very smart because most kids are not very interested in learning different languages, but when you can talk about interesting topics it makes learning more fun. When creating this MinorMynas Yip Hillary was just ten years old. It came out on IOS in 2017 and has over 65,000 downloads worldwide.

Hillary truly shows how anyone who has drive and motivation can pursue their dreams. Hillary even though she was very young still pursued her goal and proved to all the people telling her she was too young wrong. Hillary shows a very important entrepreneurial trait of courage. Hillary to this day is still perfecting MinorMynas.
