Emcee: Fatima Perez-Luthi
Description:

Your accent, your family’s story, a path that didn’t look like anybody else’s. All of it gets treated as something to overcome on the way to succeeding. We believe the opposite. That is where the grit came from, and the sacrifice, and a kind of strength that was built generations before you.

Local leaders, business owners and community advocates are telling the story behind what they built, not just the accomplishment but the road that got them there. People who made their own opportunities, and then made them for somebody else.

Whether you run a business, work for one, are still in school, or just want to hear a story that reminds you what’s possible, this is for you.
