U.S. Department of State International Visitor Leadership Conference

Hello I'm Ani, an internationally published, architecturally trained practicing Principal Interior Designer, and welcome to my blog! Women face many challenges being in business and we were recently visited by some extraordinary female Latin American official Delegates exploring diverse business topics.  As a Latina (Mexican-American) entrepreneur I was honored to be ask to speak on a panel alongside some of the most inspiring women entrepreneurial leaders in San Diego and still feeling the aftereffect of the special opportunity!

The panel was officially organized by the U.S. Department of State for 12 International Delegates who are also Latin American women business owners!  While at a conference room at Hera Hub with the female franchise founder, Felena Hanson, we answered many questions about women in entrepreneurship and some cultural differences, similarities, and challenges that women entrepreneurs face globally.  It was quite a unique cultural experience, we even had 4 professional translators too (which you will hear in the background of the video). So check it out, watch the video below, and please share any insights or thoughts! Thank you for watching!
