In my current job, I seek to be an effective bridge for greater understanding and cooperation between the U.S. and Mexico, as well as contributing to improved quality of life and social equity in Mexico. However, Mexico is a dual country, a bridge between North and Latin America, and the best practices can be found in all of the America. Getting to know the way things are done in Latin America, particularly in Ecuador, can greatly benefit the U.S.-Mexico relationship at large.
