Here’s to the most underrepresented minority group in corporate America. 🥂 The talent in this group goes frequently overlooked. If DEI is truly embraced, why do we rarely see Latin/Hispanic women in leadership and executive positions? If Latinos make up 20% of the US population, why doesn’t it reflect in corporate American leadership?

Truth be told, I've always been proud of my Latina heritage, and learning today there's a National Latina Day? I appreciate the day and sentiments, knowing how hard our Latina role models worked to be seen and respected. I celebrate my first manager, mi mama ~ Estela Alicia Leiva de Ortega, who emigrated at 24 yrs old to marry my 1st generation U.S. born Mexican dad. She was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister and true partner with my father in starting a small business from nothing...raising 5 children...a fierce advocate for one child with IDD and limited supportive resources with no more than an 8th grade education in Mexico. Love to hear the stories from others!

As a first-generation Latina woman, I want to thank Elsa Zambrano, whom I admired from afar early in my career and now call a friend/mentor. Seeing a successful Latina woman in Corporate America with a fantastic leadership style and passion for talent has inspired me for many years. Happy #NationalLatinaDay
