She leads Pulso, a digital organizing platform that reaches almost 1 million Latinos in the US via Facebook Messenger with the mission of increasing this community's political power. Liz comments and writes on Latin America, Latino issues and current events.

In this episode, Liz shares more about her journey of connecting her purpose with media and politics. She recalls a few pivots in her life that inspired her to leverage her core for a more expansive representation of the Latinx community. Additionally, she notes how the power of community and her immediate team have helped her to become more balanced in the work. Liz and her team are truly representative of what it means to break away from traditional media. We are grateful for her leadership, dedication and vision. As she so beautifully puts it, we are our own messengers.  We are humbled to be in this very moment of authentic and expansive representation of the Latin American diaspora as we share Forward 4O’s platform with this phenomenal WOC in the nonprofit and social enterprise sector.
