Every so often you meet a person who everybody loves and sometimes that person ends up being your closest friend! [INSERT ALYSSA]With an energy that is unmatched and a laugh for it all, Alyssa is truly one of my favorite ladies on the planet. She's like the younger sister I never had. From the time I met her, she's always been someone who has motivated me without even knowing it. Growing up as an only child in SA, Alyssa did the unthinkable for a lot of young, Hispanic women. She left home and headed for the big city; the big, windy city of Chicago. After studying out of state, she went on to land her dream job at a television station here in SA. Over the years, she's had a hand in some of the largest projects known to the Alamo City, including Fiesta, MuertosFest and the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo. She's not just a creative and a visionary though, she's truly a great person. Someone who finds time for her family and friendships. Someone who helps others remember the importance of a good hobby and how taking care of others starts with taking care of yourself. She's now taking a piece of her own advice while navigating being a new mom.... learning how the best things in life are both challenging and rewarding. And while she's just a few months in, she's already mastering it. So grab some popcorn, maybe a drink and enjoy part one of LOTS Pod with one of my nearest and dearest friends, Alyssa Medrano!
