“I remember in my early years, waking up early in the morning to collect cans from trash with my grandma while my mom was away working. That was our life for a while and it was normal to me; I didn’t know that we were poor. Fast forward to a few years later, we were living better. My mom used the knowledge she learned from working under others and started her own business from the ground up. I remember that very moment when I knew things were different: my mom cut her hair off and started wearing business attire. She looked like a real boss!
I watched my mother transform from a shy woman to the strongest in our family. She gracefully overcame every obstacle in her way. She proved everyone wrong, but stayed humble. She is very kind and giving, and I believe she is the glue in the family that keeps everyone together. Her entrepreneur spirit motivates me to always do my best. With her support, she inspired me be independent as well.”
