Therefore, she celebrates the liberty from her own self- exploration and experimentation in it. From there, being able to work at a place like myGwork which precisely act upon that concern through all that which we offer in the corporate world, makes her job position not only a practical approach to the visual language, but a poetic performance of living all that which she reconnoiters: through and by the flesh and the actual acting upon that concern through practical implementations of the desired...

    When I was 16 years old, I started as a volunteer in the Rainbow Association of Honduras. It was there that I discovered my rights as a trans woman. I proudly remember the beginnings of my participation in this leading organization in the defense of human rights in the country. I lived my transition in a country with few possibilities, macho, LGTBIphobic, but that also taught me to survive, to be an independent, strong woman. I had to stay alive and help other people. Little by little they were changing representatives or presidents in the organization. This happened for two reasons: either because they murdered us, or because we had to flee. Support and welcome trans women disowned by their families, demand a gender identity law, litigate archived cases of violence against trans peo...

    Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I'm a transgender woman that works for Sanofi as a data analyst. I've been working here for almost 5 years, and transitioned after working here for 3 years. I'm celebrating living as my authentic self for almost 2 years now, and it's been a pleasure to have had this opportunity! If I had to sum up my background in a sentence, my way of working is to "do the best you can with what you have, even if you don't have everything you need." Sometimes, not all of the variables we need are known, but that doesn't mean we can't put our best foot forward. I enjoy solving complex, data-oriented problems, and getting those around me excited and energized to engage with them. I believe in centering those problems around key customer needs...
