She started out without secondary education, but later settled on her true, vocation in life that gave her the opportunity to travel widely and enrich her existence.

“In her younger years, she began experimenting with hairdressing in her Grandma’s kitchen, and perfected her skills through studies at Apex College in the USA, to become a professional in her field, managing her own business. After marrying with four children, the opportunity finally came to embark on a GED [General Education], course, at a newly, constructed adult education school. She is the oldest member of the women’s club.
