Equiliberty is a technology company designed to expand financial inclusion in the U.S. through increased access to credit and capital markets while building assets and wealth at community levels. Equiliberty’s founders have a goal to help build diversity in property, ownership, support minority businesses and neighborhoods by linking people to information, capital, and markets.

When presented with the opportunity to represent, to show-up, to help lead, to grow in leadership and to help grow a community within a vital ecosystem; I choose to serve. And, I am OVERLY grateful to those organizations who not only believe in me but value my thoughts and ideas. I didn't know what this partnership would mean for me but after yesterdays' gathering of local Leaders and industry experts, it's clear that I belong in the spaces where there is passion and heart about important topics such as access to capital, equity, community and industry growth. What can we do to help one another and how can we get there together, is all we ask when you join us at our next event for Local Latino Entrepreneurs. The connections were instant and the people in the room were incredible. Very humbling to be part of the team, huge thank you to Phillip Yates & Kodi Bailey as we received recognition from Isaac Eguia on behalf of District F- City Council Member Tiffany Thomas' office for Latino Entrepreneurs Week. On to the next.... BIGGER & BETTER. Siempre.
