Inspiration
My biggest inspiration, in all that I have done and continue to do, is to make the world a better place. I have traveled extensively between Mexico and the United States ever since I was a child and this has contributed greatly to my desire to protect the environment, improve livelihoods, and leverage the power of business to address social needs and challenges.
