AIDA CASARRUBIAS - Vice President

Came to the USA in 2003 with BIG DREAMS! I never thought that something like this could be part of my life story, but this is the Country of opportunities and it really has been for me. Being part of this company I keep dreaming on creating more opportunities for whoever wants to make a commitment with themselves.
