Our wonderful guest today is Brenda Martinez, PhD candidate at the University of Texas at Austin. As a community-driven and outspoken leader, the world is ready for someone like Brenda. From first generation students and mentorship to the discourse and language surrounding what’s happening in Central America, this episode goes deep into what/who made Brenda the person she is today and the legacy she wants to leave behind.
I want to hear your thoughts so make sure to leave a rating and a review!
