If you could meet anyone from the past or present, who would it be?

Rita Moreno: Watched West Side Story growing up and Rita is a Puerto Rican and wasn’t playing the stereotypical maid role. I also loved watching her in Electric Company. Rita Moreno is the only Latina female to win an Oscar, Emmy, Tony & Grammy awards. She is a force to be reckoned with and a true badass.

What would you say to your younger self?

I am enough. I have every right to seat at the table my contributions are important even though they seem unrecognized. Thinking outside the box is not wrong.
