Oscar Carrillo will graduate from UW-Milwaukee with a degree in education. Born and raised in Mexico City, Carillo learned from an early age the importance of resilience in the face of challenges. These lessons are what fueled his commitment to becoming an educator in Milwaukee.

I was fortunate to have great mentors who poured their wisdom into me, and my mission is to pay that forward, empowering the next generation,” said Carillo.
Carillo is most excited about the prospect of becoming a young educator in middle school and high school classrooms. He hopes to one day pursue higher education within his professional field.

Rosie Robles is a Hispanic, first-generation student set to graduate from Alverno College this month with a degree in nursing.
“I married and became a mom at 19, and I have learned to build resilience through balancing my responsibilities and managing my time. What keeps me motivated is my hard-working immigrant parents, my daughter and the legacy of men and women in my family who had to set their dreams aside to support the family,” said Robles.
Robles is excited to become a registered nurse and looks forward to collaborating with the Greater Milwaukee National Association of Hispanic Nurses to tackle health disparities in the community.
