Hi every body. My name is Pedro Bastidas. I was born in Caracas, Venezuela and have been living in Washington DC for the last 14 years. My dream career is being and international consultant and being able to travel around the world to work in development activities. I wish I could continue doint this working with International Organizations doing business in Latin America. I have been in Baltimore a couple of time visiting the museum and some restaurants. I love reading short stories in English and Spanish. I recently read "The Wondrous and Brief Life of Oscar Wou" by Junot Diaz. I loved it. I love jazz, clasical, folk and some pop music.. I hope that Baltimore LatPro group help me to conect with people working in Latn America in my area of experience.

Hola a todos!!!! :0) My name is Ruth, I am from Colombia and have been here in the US for 14 years. I have lived in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and now here in Baltimore. I went to school to Immaculata University in Pennsylvania, and just recently graduated in May of 2008. I am now looking for a job here in Baltimore. I would like to work somewhere where I can help people in need. Although I did not study to be a social worker or anything similar to that, this is what I want to do. I know I discovered this towards the end of my college career, but I would like to try and pursue this anyway. I actually just recently moved to Baltimore, so I don't have a favorite place yet. However, if you guys have any suggestions of places to see or activities for me to try, let me know and I may try it. I like trying new things. I like to do sports and stay active, listen to music, and also read. I would like to travel around the world and see new places. I love languages, and would like to learn more. I would love to connect and share experiences with you guys, it's always great to learn from others. Hope to get to know you all better!!!! :0)

Chao,
Ruth

Hello,

My name is Elisa Estrella and I moved to Baltimore about six months to take a position as a Marketing Manager in a financial services company. Unfortunately, our current economy really hit us hard and I was laid-off in January. I am currently looking for full-time employment however, I have also taken this opportunity to launch my own consulting organization. My parents are from the Dominican Republic and I was born and raised in New York but I have lived in Atlanta, GA, Charlotte, NC, Philadelphia, PA and now I live in Maryland.

My ideal dream job is have a successful, thriving business that allows me utilize my creative expertise. Lately, I have been into Paulo Coehelo's books...all of them! The Alchemist being my favorite. I love all types of music but I have to admit that Latin music moves me the most. My hobbies vary depending on the weather, but overall I like things where action is involved versus being a spectator.

I hope to see our community grow in Baltimore.
