I sell western wear and related retail products (perfumes, etc.).  I love helping the community by providing services requested by customers, such as preparation of income taxes, immigration documentation, marriages and bill paying.  I had negative experiences working as an employee and decided to open my own business.  I love the freedom of business ownership, being my own boss and making my own decisions.  I love working with the community.  I am very proud of what I have accomplished as an entrepreneur over the past 30 years.  I want to see the local Latino businesses prosper together.  I am very satisfied in having served a useful purpose in life – to serve the community.
