DR. LORENA LORRAINE PULIDO: FROM TEEN MOM TO IVY LEAGUE LEADER | Momentos & Voices by Mariana Veraza

In this episode of Momentos & Voices, I sit down with Dr. Lorena "Lorraine" Pulido to talk about resilience, purpose, and the power of education. Lorena opens up about becoming a mother as a teenager while attending an Ivy League university, and how that experience shaped her drive to lead and serve others. We discuss the importance of being a connector, lifting others as you grow, and why access to education can change entire communities. As Director of Communications for SAISD and a board member for Alamo Colleges and Brooks City Base, Lorena continues to create impact well beyond her own journey. This conversation is a reminder that your story doesn’t define your limits—it fuels your leadership. #MomentosAndVoices #BreakingBarriers #WomenInLeadership #EducationMatters #Resilience #CommunityLeadership #LatinasLead #Motherhood #PurposeDriven #Storytelling
