What does growth really look like? For me, it looked like leaving everything I knew in Peru, learning English from scratch, surviving high school during a pandemic, and finding my voice in a world that didn't always understand me.
This is my story, of heartbreak and healing, loneliness and leadership, fear and faith. From crying in silence after school to performing in musicals, from Zoom classes during COVID to falling in love with learning again thanks to one life-changing teacher... this is how I became the woman I am today.
If you've ever felt out of place, like your story didn't matter - I promise, it does!
This is for the immigrants, the first-gens, the overthinkers, the dreamers.
This is what growth looks like.
