She observed, "Growing up in San Antonio, I have always been proud of my roots.  San Antonio is a special place where families care about each other.  It's a city of hope and dreams with opportunities.  But mostly, San Antonio is special because we are a city of values.  Our parents taught us lifelong lessons about values and respect.  I learned the reward of hard work early, helping in the family store, Guajardo Grocery.  But my parents wanted more for their children and demanded that we focus on our education.  These are the stories of San Antonio - families sharing values and working to improve lives."
