Astrid

Astrid is from Suchitepéquez Guatemala.  She is a mother to three children.  Astrid immigrated when she was 19 with her three-year-old daughter fleeing domestic violence.  She believes storytelling is an opportunity to express herself and step outside of the narratives that she has been led to believe about herself.
