✨ Yesterday, I had the privilege of speaking on the Latina Leadership Unfiltered panel hosted by Progreso Latino in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month.

As Latinas, we bring so much more to the table than is often recognized. Our bicultural identity equips us with the ability to navigate different worlds—what I like to call artful navigation. Far from being a liability, this is a leadership superpower. It allows us to adapt, connect, and lead with perspective and empathy.

We are resilient. We are innovative. We are committed to family, community, and excellence. And when we show up fully in our strength—combining authenticity with executive presence—we not only claim our seat at the table, we enrich the conversation for everyone there.

💡 My hope is that more organizations will recognize and champion the unique strengths of Latina leaders. Because when Latinas rise, workplaces—and communities—thrive.

✨ Standing room only! ✨

I was thrilled to lead a session on Executive Presence for Women in Government Relations at the WGR Leadership & Advocacy Conference. As a lawyer who has built her career in government relations—and as a proud WGR member—I have a special affinity for this incredible community.

The work women do in this space is powerful and far-reaching, and it was an honor to share tools to help elevate our voices and influence in the policy arena.
