Mi abuela

My grandmother came to this country from the Dominican Republic at the age of 21.  She learned English on her own while she was here.  She earned a living by cutting hair and mending clothes.  Once she amassed enough skills she then opened up her own salon where she employed many other stylists and an accountant.  Because of her, this country received more taxes and had more more employed persons.  I appreciate the work that she did and I am proud to call her my abuela.
