I am originally from Veracruz, Mexico, and have been living in Texas since 2002. Recently, I completed my master’s degree in Montessori education, and I also hold a master’s in business administration (MBA) and Bachelor’s (BA) in marketing. My professional journey has been divided into two parts. First, I worked in the banking and investment sector, where I developed skills in customer service, sales, budgeting, and management. Second, I have served as a teacher in various educational settings, including public and private schools with alternative philosophies such as Montessori, International Baccalaureate (IB), and bilingual programs in Spanish. One aspect that unites both facets of my career is the constant use of Spanish. This skill has been fundamental to my professional success and personal satisfaction. I currently live in Driftwood, TX, with my family.
