Our Story
An idea that had been in the works for a few years has finally come to fruition. When I look at my family, I am mesmerized by the dedication and sacrifice that went into paving the way towards a brighter future. There is nothing like the sense of community. I hope that this venture bridges the gap for all bilingual families. Because at the end of the day, Spanish Connects Us.
Una idea que llevaba varios años desarrollándose se ha hecho realidad. Cuando miro a mi familia, me siento tan impresionada con la dedicación y sacrificio que forjaron para crear un futuro brillante. No hay nada como el sentido de comunidad. Espero que este emprendimiento pueda unir todas las familias bilingües. Porque al final del día, el español nos conecta.
