With over 35 years of experience as a tech entrepreneur and leader, I lead the vision and mission of two organizations: CSC Consulting Group and Latinx Digital Leaders Now (Latinx DLN). CSC is a boutique IT services provider (MSP) that serves schools, nonprofits, and small businesses with Cisco and Microsoft certified network engineers, mostly home-grown Latino tech professionals. LatinX DLN is a nonprofit dedicated to engaging Latinos as digital leaders to thrive in how we live, learn, work, and play.

As a proud immigrant, first-generation, and 1% Latina tech entrepreneur, I am passionate about changing the statistics of Latines in the tech workforce (only 2% Latinas and 8% Latinos). I leverage my expertise, network, and influence to advocate for tech equity, education equity, and innovation in the Latine community. I also participate as a founding member of Angeles Investors, a network that funds and grows Hispanic and Latinx ventures. I frequently share my story and insights as a trailblazer, disruptor, philanthropist, investor, activist, and award-winning servant leader.

A career highlight was receiving the Illinois Small Business Person of the Year Award at the White House in 1993. My immigrant entrepreneurial story began as a corporate CPA auditor, an early ed tech adopter with Apple, serving Chicago schools in the '90s. Today, CSC Consulting Group, my tech firm, thrives with home-grown Latino techs, serving clients like Chicago Public Schools for over 30 years
