“In life we never know what our future will look like, who we will meet, what will inspire us or what challenges we will encounter, but through everything I know I have the ability to continue moving forward with confidence and truly appreciate how many “life miles” I have already covered. My experience with NMSHSA and United Farm Workers taught me that my struggles have changed me into a stronger and better person, that my story is invaluable, and that I have the potential to influence and create real change. Today I move forward with a newfound confidence, pride and appreciation for my farmworker background.”
