OUR CO-FOUNDERS
Flor
Co-Founder
Executive Director

I am the oldest child in a family of ten. I am the first in my family to go to college and I struggled with the college application process. I had no one to ask for help.
I have a Bachelors in Business Administration and a Masters in Textile and Apparel Design from North Carolina State University.
I began to celebrate my Latinidad until I got out of Wilson because there were no spaces to celebrate my identity in my hometown.

Iza
Co-Founder
Director of Community Advancement
I am the third oldest child in a family of ten. Growing up I molded myself to fit in spaces I felt like I didn’t belong in. Now, I’m a loud and proud Latina that takes up space. I’m proud of my big family, my culture, and my parent’s story.
My wish is for the Latinx youth to have safe spaces where they can explore and embrace their full identity.
I have a Bachelors in Exercise and Sport Science from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and I have been a college adviser for three years.
