“I want Latinos to be seen as the hard-working people that we are. We'll take the hardest jobs that no one wants to take, and we'll do them with dignity.”
“I love being Latina. I love our values, the way we're so in touch with others, our dark humor, how fun we are, how relaxed we are. I love how hard working, independent, and ambitious we are.”
“I feel I have a great responsibility to be an active Latina. I've been rallying for DACA, and in the summer, I'll be rallying again so that people are aware that if certain senators are elected they can help impeach Donald Trump.”
“When I was a girl, there wasn't anything in Spanish in the movies until you saw it on DVD.”
“I'm a perfectionist, which is bad at times but very good at other times.”
“Never suntan! Ten minutes in the sun on a daily basis is good to get vitamin D, but sun tanning is terrible for your skin. It dehydrates your skin, creates sunspots, and can give you skin cancer.”
“Rock climbing and surfing are two of my favorite things in life.”
“My mom was very much alpha. I admired her because she was the working mom on the go. She's such a boss. She's an OG, as they say.”
“It blows my mind - whenever you're stuck in one place, you think this is how the world is, and then you walk out and see there's so many layers to everything.”
“When my father passed away, I learned to be unattached to physical things. At a very young age, I was able to roam the world and be emotionally connected but physically disconnected. I'll get homesick in that I miss my mom. My grounding rock is her and my family.”
“I always say that what's between you and your success is yourself.”
“I lost my father very young, but not young enough to not be aware of what was going on. My father and I had an amazing relationship. We were very close.”
“I speak Italian and a little bit of French. I moved to Trento, Italy, when I was around 10 to learn Italian. I have family there. I'm trying to restart my French. And then I want to get into Mandarin.”
“I can have an accent and not have an accent, so it's really cool. I can play with it. I can be very Sofia Vergara, too, so it's really cool.”
“Any neuroscience book is the death of me. I'm currently obsessed with 'The Moral Landscape' from Sam Harris. He's a controversial writer addressing science and religion while talking about the deep undertaking of your brain.”
“I love written books and novels, but I really love graphic novels and comic books!”
“I like to tell little girls that not every day is going to be your best day and that you won't look pretty every day either and that that's OK. But it is important to take care of yourself.”
“I'm born and raised in Mexico. I only spent eight months in the States, but definitely English is a really big part of my life, and I love it. Thank God my mom put me in American school because I'm able to be working in the States, and it opens a lot more doors being half and not being only one. It's cool because I get to turn it on and off.”
“I studied in American school, so yes, I grew up speaking English and Spanish. Obviously, Spanish is my first language.”
“It's really hard to have your voice heard in a man's world. People are always comparing women and bringing them down - that, I'm completely against. We have an obligation as women to not pit ourselves against each other, because men are going to do it for us.”
