Born and raised in Miami — a city shaped by the dreams of people who left everything behind. My family was part of that story. Cuban immigrants who arrived with nothing but faith, fire, and an unshakeable will to build something better.
I was raised not by just one, but by many — surrounded by a family that showed me what sacrifice, unity, and perseverance truly look like.
And while my entire family played a role in shaping who I am, it was the women in my family who took charge, worked tirelessly, and became my greatest heroes — they faced uncertainty, started from nothing, and still found the strength to move forward.
