Public Figure, Community Advocate My name is Sonia Rivera, I am the daughter of Mexican immigrant farm workers. I am no stranger to hard work.
I began working at the age of 13 doing janitorial work at the factory where my grandmother worked at so that I could buy school clothes. Once divorced at the age of 23, I realized that I could not raise a family making $5.00 per hour, and went back to college, leading to better employment opportunities. I raised 2 children as a single mother, while working 2-3 jobs, and attending college full time
