Testimonials

"Diane was amazing! We had 600 people in the audience, high school students from the region, college students, people from Chicago! She talked and read from a presentation, but then sat down and had a conversation with the audience. Individuals, including a 14-year old Latina high school student, courageously acknowledged her pain, depression, anxiety, and the whole event became a counseling session. She addressed this collective and individual pain in very nurturing ways. The reception afterward was a lot of fun and our majors had the opportunity to talk to her one on one! Amazing event and thanks for all the work you did on our behalf!"

- Northwestern University

"The event was a major success and so fantastic Diane is fabulous and had so much soul and purpose in her talk and a lot of heart as well. I loved it and truly enjoyed it; I want to thank you so much for helping us in this process to have her conclude our Hispanic Heritage month events."

- Dallas College

"It was a huge success. The students were star struck and very impressed with how relatable she was. There were some huge emotions in the room due to the elections, however she was able to break through and connect with the audience. Loved having her!"

- Illinois State University

"She was very impactful. Tears were shed. Many students were so thankful that we stepped out of our comfort zone and didn't just plan a party but planned an event with such purpose. She was amazing with the students - no one was left without a selfie or a chance to chat with her. She really took the time to chat with students who had been so moved by her. She is much much more than 'someone from OITNB and Jane the Virgin'!"

- Case Western Reserve University

"It was wonderful. Diane delivered a heartfelt and important talk about her personal experience and immigration reform. As you probably know, she was extremely generous with her time. We had a long line, I’d estimate around 200, students who stayed for pictures and autographs. Diane insisted on meeting everyone and took all the pictures and signed all the autographs. Thank you for another wonderful event."
