MEET THE FOUNDER
Mama Abroad was founded by Erica M. Pallangyo, an immigrant mother passionate about helping women navigate motherhood while adjusting to life in the United States.
Through her experiences learning new systems, rebuilding identity, and raising a family in a new country, she created Mama Abroad to provide clarity, support, and connection for mothers walking a similar journey.
