Testimonials

As a board member of Latinas In Tech | Boston, I was looking to connect with empowered women with stories of success to share with the members of our non-profit. Lorena's talk about resilience highly resonated with our audience and we followed suit by answering questions on FB live. I highly recommend connecting and working with Lorena as a Latinx female leader with a great story to tell and very universal growth advice.

Lorena is an earnest and transparent human being. Lorena was friendly, patient, and carefully listened to what I was looking for (in a storyteller.) When it came time for dress rehearsal, Lorena was prepared in more ways than one. She delivered an impassioned and intimate personal story that the audience could relate to and wanted more. I am so grateful to have met Lorena and truly look forward to getting to know her more.
