Narrative:

Looking for a woman who is proud about her life? Then you found her. Rose is a very interesting woman who is currently in a career transition, but works very hard to make her way through things. She was born in Illinois and got an associates degree from Johnston Community College. She rarely eats out and you can just tell that she values her family a lot. She says her greatest accomplishment was having her two kids. Four people and two dogs currently live in her home including her kids, and one of her friends. She believes that being Latino has played a significant role in her life because she grew up in a house where everybody spoke Spanish, and she thinks people view her differently because she speaks Spanish.
