Grateful to the @cityofwaco, @dillon_meek and the Building and Standards Commission for the opportunity to serve. I’m grateful for the many resident volunteers and city workers who, day in and day out, listen to one another, work out conflict, dream big dreams together and act in solidarity with the community. Thank you. #waco (at Sanger-Heights, Waco) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtFLbO4DmU9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n84eipan45j7

I discovered the Sabbath isn’t about what is done or left undone as much as breathing in the goodness of God. The more I inhaled, the more I desired another long breath. -Margaret Feinberg. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs3BcPAjLfH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pb1oabtye67h

Amig@s, this is it, my last semester. The support of so many people made this possible. I almost dropped out towards the beginning b/c LIFE. There were so many difficult trade-offs, things I didn’t want to say No to and changes I struggled to accept. Hechándole ganas. Adelante! . . . #baylormba #baylormba2019 #latinoleaders #latinomba #business4good #sustainableentrepreneurship #raza #waco #wacotx #sangerheights #socialimpact #tech4good https://www.instagram.com/p/BsjiYN0Dz0z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pz4olyi9vqfo

This morning, Latina entrepreneurs Daysi and Sarah from the 25th Street Bazaar shared their stories of triumphs and challenges, tactics and strategies, hopes and dreams to build a life of beauty and dignity for their children, neighborhood in #Sanger-heights and all of #Waco- with the Grupo de Apoyo y Esperanza. I shared my story about my own mother’s entrepreneurial grit and persistence and went over the Customer Canvas framework and talked about @startupwaco. Sarah and Daysi had folks ready to start their own Waco small enterprises! New things are developing! https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo44pSugukm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15rgnjk78e351

Grateful for these days (and the mundane ones, too): -time sitting with a friend who was in an accident -conspiring for an inclusive economic development approach in #waco with amazing leader and Executive Director Ashley of the @wacofoundation -Knocking out Cooperative Strategy approaches with a colleague -listening to small business owners on 25th Street corridor to help inform @startupwaco offerings that are inclusive of the Latin@ community -learning how to record a podcast from neighbor, local Pastor and friend @wacobishop -getting messy making butter slime with my little ones, who inspire me -receiving a beautiful, handmade, ceramic hanging from St. Andrew’s Abbey as a gift for service on the board at Casa Alterna in Georgia. The art piece is a reminder of the Immigrant Christ who crossed the border between eternity and our finite world to reconcile us with God and one another. Thank you Charlotte and @antonofalterna and the rest of the board directors. (at Waco, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo4hfwZAVV5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=113xdb6xdpiqs
