Profile Information
- about me
- I am originally from Mexico City. I moved to Orlando, Florida back in 1999. I am a people person and I enjoy empowering woman.
When I Moved to Orlando with no friends and no family close to me, I devoted my life to my kids and husband and I started to volunteer at the Community School. Soon, I gained confidence speaking English and I was offered to fulfill a position as a Paraprofessional in the school. Then, between Family and work I got a Real Estate and Mortgage Broker licenses and started a new career as a Real Estate Professional.
With all the demands we daily face, I found myself empty and with a big gap in my social life and when I was looking for a balance, I noticed that most women feel the same way. We need to balance ourselves to be happier and healthier to look and feel great. My wish is to create a life I love and share tools with other women to reach the same.
I am a mother, a wife, a daugther, sister and a friend and as such, I understand what women want and need.
I believe in women beauty and my hobbies and interests have always been directed to beauty related workshops and beauty shows. I have over 15 years of experience on selling several brands of cosmetics and beauty products and I am also a Licensed Esthetician. So, I decided to use this combined experience to come back to what I love to do. I combine my current job with the beauty and health industries.
So, if you want the fun of being with friends and build new relationships, join me to walk through life together. We can coach each other to set goals and succeed. We can nurture our families because we are fullfiled and happy. Let's make it happen.
