Speaker
Conducting my first TEDx was an incredible experience. First, because it helped me heal past hurt and grow as an individual. Second, it has helped heal other individuals who have experienced similar challenges. Finally, it has launched me into the professional speaking circuit as a motivational speaker and I am beyond thrilled! Sharing my story, experiences and challenges both personally and professionally is my way of paying it forward and helping future generations. As a former Latina executive, serial entrepreneur, women's activist, venture capitalist and single mother who rebuilt her life, I have accumulated a lifetime of incredible insights and experiences on what it takes to reinvent yourself, overcome life and career challenges, transform your career multiple times and manifest your deepest goals and desires. Let me inspire your audience at your next conference and show them that anything is possible regardless of your background, situation or circumstance.
