I was born in Mexico and have been living in Charlotte since 1990. I am a mom of 4 wonderful kids (2 girls and 2 boys). My oldest daughter Belle (26) is working/living in NYC. She is a fashion stylist and also works for Real Simple Magazine amongst other things. My oldest son Addis (24 ) is in the US Marine Corp Officers Training Program in Quantico, VA, and my 2 younger children, Victoria (16) and Marcos (13) are working hard in school to make sure they get into good colleges as we stress education at home. I earned a degree in Mexico City in Bilingualism Secretarial Skills and Commerce and was licensed with a Series 7 & 63 while working on the Foreign Currency Trade desk at Wells Fargo for Latin American Banks. I then became a stay home mom after my fourth child was born and became a translator for medical offices, such as pediatric offices, and for social services in the county. I have always loved working with kids and have raised my own four to speak Spanish fluently. My passions include going to the beach, working out, playing tennis, cooking, and watching movies with my kids and husband. I have been involved in all of my children’s schools as a room mom and volunteer, and I was president of my neighborhood's Women’s Club. Hello Spanish Club is a fantastic opportunity for the children of this community to learn more about our language and culture, and for us native speakers to use our skills to help with the education of future generations.
