Diego is a Dreamer, in more ways than one. Coming to America from Peru at the age of 9 with his family Diego adopted his parent’s determination and work ethic. Lacking the necessary paperwork to accept the college scholarships offered to him, Diego used his resourcefulness to start a company and put himself through college. Then in 2012 Obama passed the DACA policy that allowed children brought to the US by their parents to work and drive. Leveraging this program Diego has now quit his corporate job and is a full-time realtor and real estate investor.
Chasing impact Diego tells his story to inspire others. He tells everyone “Live a bigger life, not a bigger lifestyle.”
