Wow, wow, wow! I can’t even begin to explain how amazing this weekend’s Pasaporté event was. From the moment I walked in, I could feel the energy and sense of community that Pasaporte brings. Being able to moderate my own panel was a huge milestone for me, but even more special was the opportunity to meet so many beautiful people who share one common goal—to grow and bring others with them along the way. It was inspiring to hear everyone’s stories, see their passion, and feel their commitment to lifting each other up. Pasaporte was created as a way to give back to our community que nos ha visto crecer, and yesterday was a powerful testament to that. Seeing everyone come together, celebrate our roots, and work towards building a stronger future felt like something truly special. I’m so grateful to the entire Pasaporte team for putting this together—it was no small feat, and the result was nothing short of magical. I also want to thank, Tatiana Carett, PT, MPH, MBA , Sandra Mosquera Vargas and Caryl Marie Perez for accepting to be on this panel and making this experience so special 🫶 The sky is truly the limit for our community, and I’m beyond excited to see where we go from here. 🇩🇴 Latinas In Tech - New York City #hispanicheritagemonth #hhm #latinasintech #latinasintechnyc
