Overcoming Obstacles | Ingrid Hernandez | TEDxVeroBeach

Описание: Ingrid takes us through her early life of abuse and her self defined moments where she escaped through the U.S. military and entrepreneurship. Not being defined by her past, Ingrid is an amazing achievement story. Ingrid graduated from Chelsea High School in 1999. She joined the United States Army in 2002 and served for 13 years as a Civil Affairs soldier. Ingrid served one tour in Iraq, driving daily convoys in an austere location and earning a Bronze Star for her bravery in combat. In 2009, she became a licensed Radiation Therapist and earned an Associate Degree in Science. Ingrid left military service and pursued a new career with Mary Kay. Ingrid is also featured as a storyteller for “Hear My Story”. She is currently a Mary Kay Sales Director and loves the profession because it allows her to help women become their best selves and the flexibility to spend quality time with her husband and three children. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
