History has been made in Zacatecas, Mexico.
Twenty-five-year-old Ana Victoria Espino de Santiago has become the world’s first lawyer with Down Syndrome.
However, rather than defending people in the court of law, Espino is more interested in politics.
For Espino, becoming a lawyer was a long-time dream.
After graduating high school, Espino applied to university and aced the admission exam.
Moved by her unwavering spirit, a professor stepped up and offered to help Espino.
Espino’s career as an advocate for people with disabilities predates her pursuing a degree.
As for the future, Espino has a very clear image of what she wants to achieve.
