Sewing Maquila Manager & Sewing Instructor
Sewing Maquila Manager & Sewing Instructor
Reina is a great example of what our organization is working for. In 2006 she came to Mi Esperanza as a student and started working in the sewing shop, showing her abilities and high-quality work. When a supervisor´s position was open, Reina was the right choice.
Since January 2017, she has guided the artisans who work in the sewing Maquila. Her talents have also been applied in the sewing school. She is very proud and enthusiastic about her first experience as a teacher, having the opportunity to train and inspire other women.
“I´m very thankful for Mi Esperanza. It´s an honor and very satisfying to be able to give my knowledge to other women who want to learn and make their lives better.”
