Breaking through barriers takes more than just skill—it takes passion and resilience. At FGX International, we are proud to spotlight Alin Gamez, Director, Supply Chain & Operations in Latin America, a trailblazer who has carved out her own path in what remains a heavily male-dominated industry. "My path has been long. It has required a lot of patience, preparation, and constant training—a lot of passion and, at times, resilience. However, an impeccable work ethic, authentic enthusiasm, and the ability to feel comfortable in this industry have been fundamental in strengthening my path and career in these areas." Her journey is a testament to the power of perseverance and the impact of women who challenge the status quo. As we continue to champion inclusion, we celebrate the women shaping the future of FGX International. #WeAreFGX?#WomensHistoryMonth #InternationalWomensDay
