I am from Devine, Texas originally, but moved to Miami when I was two. I work in medical records for the Juanita Mann Health Center. I enjoy bowling, listening to music, and working with Habitat. All of my wishes and goals are finally coming true, especially my long-time goal, which is my house that I have promised my kids year after year but have been unable to do. Now my kids and me will finally live that dream. I want to thank everyone who had something to do with my dream becoming a reality for my kids. Thank you so much for believing in me and letting me come this far. I hope that I will be able to give back to maybe another family or to Habitat for Humanity in the future for what I have been given the opportunity to be a part of. I know it’s going to be an experience I won’t forget. Thanks again.
