My mother, Rosa, instilled in us the values of hard work, dedication, and the belief that when faced with the unknown: “agarra el toro de los cuernos”(get the bull by its horns) and have no fear when faced with a crisis. She can rise to any situation, put on a brave face, and always keep the faith. Oh, and among those lessons, don’t forget to have at least a good lipstick when in public because you never know who you will run into.
