About Us

Welcome to Successful Latina, a career resource that helps you be more confident, knowledgeable, and prepared at every step in your career journey.

We want to help you reach your goals, whether that be applying to college, internships, or interviewing for your first big-girl job.

One of the reasons why were driven to create Successful Latina is because of our first-hand experience in the realms of higher education and the workforce. As Latinas, we noticed the disadvantages that we face in these environments, either from lack of exposure or discrimination.

Putting the work in for your career can be daunting and intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. We want to help create that discussion with you in a way that excludes confusing jargon or shame so that you can be a Successful Latina!

Successful Latina is like your big sister. If you find yourself lost or confused on what to do, we can give you actionable advice and share new skills in a safe and welcoming space. We want to help you navigate your career and serve as your support system as you continue to thrive and evolve. Because when of us succeeds, we all succeed.

The WHY on our focus on Latinas:

Because we know typical career sites and resources don’t consider the different factors that affect women, specifically Latinas. Latinas are likely to be the minority in the room, experience less pay, and be a target of discrimination. We believe Latinas are deserving of the center-stage in all stages of their career; however, Successful Latina supports all racial and ethnic groups, genders, and non-binary individuals.
