A Journey From Ecuador to the USA with Marcia Chong Rosado

Vero Season 4 Episode 131

Are you working in a field where you are the only Latina in the room? Have you ever felt that you are exhausted from doing the hard work of making an impact?


If you answered yes to any of those questions, this episode is for you!


Marcia moved from Ecuador to the USA when she was 7 years old. We explored how her immigration journey has impacted her life in many different ways. From feeling less confident at times to learning that her diversity is in fact her strength! 


We also talked about venture capital and the startup world where Marcia has been creating a wonderful impact, raising important questions, and including diverse voices in every space. Marcia is motivated by economic justice, equity, and opportunities for those who haven't had the chance! She will tell you more about her work in this interview, and about the accelerator programs she has created, she also shared wonderful resources! 



I hope that you enjoy this interview as much as I did!
