My name is Maria Rodriguez and I am a thiry-year-old Latina woman from the United States. I was born in New York City but moved to Texas when I was just a little girl. Growing up, my parents instilled in me the values of hard work, perseverance, and education. I knew that if I wanted to succeed, I had to focus on my studies and do everything in my power to achieve my goals. And so, I did.
I graduated from college with honors and went on to pursue a successful career as an engineer. However, after several years of working long hours and being away from my family, I realized that something was missing. I wanted more than just a job - I wanted a sense of purpose in what I did. So, I made the difficult decision to leave my job and embark on a new path.
Today, I am a social entrepreneur working towards creating opportunities for women and girls from underserved communities. Through my organization, we provide access to education, resources, and support so that they can achieve their full potential. It is challenging work but also incredibly fulfilling because I know that I am making a difference in the lives of others.
Despite the challenges I have faced along the way, I am proud of who I am and where I come from. Being Latina has shaped me into the person I am today - a strong, resilient, and compassionate woman who is dedicated to making a positive impact in the world.
