WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER TO BE YOUR GREATEST ACHIE- VEMENT? To have reached a point where I can be a help to my family and my passion of helping children less fortunate. AT WHAT AGE DID YOU DISCOVER YOUR PASSION? From age three to age fifteen I lived with my father and a stepmother who were very cruel to me physically and mentally. Just like in the storybook, once my stepmother began having children of her own I became a Cinderella. I attended school, but at home I worked throughout the day very seldom being able to join other my age outside to play. I finally ran away at fifteen in the pouring rain, still wearing my school uniform, to seek my real mother. As I sat on a stoop where my mother once lived, I decided from that day that I would help children less fortunate and do my best so other children would never go through what I had been through. Therefore I will confirm that I knew my passion and God given calling at age fifteen.

This passion first birthed when I was fifteen, finally materialized in 2003 as Amigas Friends of Children, Inc. I boast with pride about this organization. I handpicked each member, ensured they were of Panamanian descent, who I knew had a given heart, also coming from humble beginnings and now were all professionals willing to give back to society. Our board of directors all reside in the U.S. However since 2009, we’ve formed an Amigas chapter in Panama with other hard working members. 26
