Elyse Y.

Robinson

I am the Founder of Switch Into Tech Inc., NewsIn.IT, a Microsoft Certified Trainer, and a Cloud Engineer...in love with Mexico, researching any and everything, and helping people get into the tech industry.

Bio

Elyse Y. Robinson has been described as fearless. After losing her mother to blood cancer, she left America to mourn her mother in Mexico and decided to stay. Going into her 5th year of spending time in Mexico, she is the Founder of Switch Into Tech Inc., NewsIn.IT and runs a blog, podcast, and youtube channel about her life in Mexico under ElyseRobinson.com.

NewsIn.IT started because you read so many times that you should solve your own problems. Elyse loves to research opportunities to take advantage of for free or cheap. Elyse has won scholarships, bootcamps, exam vouchers, events, and more. At other's requests, she took her research skills and web development knowledge to turn NewsIn.IT into a business.

ElyseRobinson.com began with the thought that not many people move to another country let alone Black Americans and she wanted to show people that we travel and living overseas is not what people believe it to be. A great life can be created.

Before becoming the fearless person Elyse is now, she was an Auditor that kept the public safe and before COVID hit, an IT Consultant in Mexico helping people understand the intricacies of the Cloud.

You can find Elyse splitting her time between America and Mexico when she gets tired of tacos and Spanish or Chick-Fil-A and English.
