Keynote with Our Founder
Dr. Violeta Garcia, founder of Ecosistema Design, is a sought-after expert with over 20 years of educational, adult training, and facilitation expertise. Her life experiences as an immigrant, a non-native English speaker, a scientist, and a woman of color have shaped her worldview. As a bicultural leader, she engages audiences in thinking about how they can break stereotypes that keep them marginalized and assumptions about who they “should be." She encourages people to focus on their potential to write a holistic story about their communities; a story of perseverance, drive, and opportunity; a story about what’s possible in their lives.
