- I'm just so tired of the sexualization of the Latina women. We have so much to give, our story is so much more than skin and cleavage.

Stories of success, deception, friendship, failure and the ability to continue when most people want to give up. I want to watch and feel inspired by those stories, so I am going to write and film them.
