I am an Arizona native and have come to appreciate the desert. When I was younger I thought beauty only existed in areas filled with green grass and flowers everywhere. I had a fairytale childhood and for that my parents are superheroes. On my first and last day of preschool my teacher tried to change my name to Mary Helen, and I could not stand for such injustice. My name is MariaElena exactly as typed, and no one will change my name which is also shared by my grandmother. I was incredibly sheltered as a child all the way up through high school, which could be partly the reason the high school I attended allowed me to write and read the Valedictorian speech. I quoted Forest Gump only because “Life is really like a box of chocolate, you never know what you are going to getâ€.Not only did I gain an appreciation for academics but my faith in God grew immensely. I believe all people have “good†within them, but some were not given a life geared toward positive ideals. All people are beautiful no matter their orientation or religion. Everyone has a different name for God, which makes this world a jigsaw puzzle with no missing pieces. Prayers are directed toward a higher being of some sort in various ways, and eventually everyone ends up in a better place.My strong-will allowed me to graduate from the Harvard of the West Coast also known as the University of Southern California. I experienced more than I could have ever imagined in my wildest dreams. During my time at USC I was in Alpha Delta Pi sorority, but I do not consider myself a “sorority girl†only because I will not think lesser of person based off of appearance. I was also a part of a Latina based organization called Nuestra Alma Latina, which allowed me to eat good carne asada and take amazing trips to San Diego and sometimes go south of the border. My gift to USC was my time as a football recruitment guide, which may be partly the reason they were national champions while I was there.Because of my diploma from USC and my networking skills I became the state co-director of a non-partisan campaign sponsored by Governor Bill Richardson in the 2004 presidential election. We were able to get over 53,000 people registered and out voting, which helped break state records in Arizona. My love for politics grows by the day. I have a strong desire to help those particularly within underserved areas.This desire is likely the reason I am a director here in Phoenix of an educational program that provides free tutoring services to Title I schools as part of the No Child Left Behind Act (the job that consumes the majority of my time throughout the week and makes the battery on my phone go dead). I also work as the Latino International Strategist and business development of a redevelopment company that provides funding for developers with projects in the Sunbelt areas, which are twelve states along the southern half of the United States (wish I had more time in the day to devote some time to this effort but unfortunately my time goes to the educational job).It is true that I cannot save the world alone as much as I would like to consider myself Super Woman. I hope that my goodwill and positive energy along with more life experience and education will bring happiness to people in legendary ways.
