Well, I apologize for the delay in sending this “better late than never” . So, here I am sharing the review that Dr. Galindo asked me to Share with you:
Meeting Alicia T. Basurto at our CIRCLE meant a lot to me. As a Latina working toward my Master’s degree, seeing someone from a similar background who kept going until her dreams flourished was deeply inspiring. I appreciated how she shared practical tips on not giving up and turning dreams into reality. Her story came at just the right time and reminded me that living out of my roots doesn’t hold me back. On the contrary, it gives me strength to keep moving forward and embrace the journey toward making my dream come true.
Thank you again for reminding me that embracing my roots gives me strength to keep moving forward.
