Stop waiting for permission to speak up.
Fear is just a feeling, not a barrier.
Your perspective has value.
Take space. Share your ideas.
And build your network with intention.
Mentors and sponsors change everything, especially when you’re not in the room to speak for yourself.

Every mentor I’ve had changed my path—not by having all the answers, but by believing in me.
You don’t need a title to mentor someone. You just need to care. 💛

Grateful to be recognized by @Favikon among the Top 10 most influential LinkedIn voices in the Dominican Republic and part of the Top 2000 worldwide 🌎

True influence isn’t about numbers, it’s about authenticity, empathy, and purpose. 💫

Today is Latina Equal Pay Day, the day Latinas must work into the next year to earn what white, non-Hispanic men made last year.

We deserve equal pay, opportunity, and respect, not just 54¢ on the dollar.

Speak up. Ask questions. Lift as you climb.

The person you report to shapes how you lead.

Choose someone you respect.

Trust should flow both ways.

Too many layers and not enough trust will crush innovation.
Build systems that serve people, not bureaucracy.
