I’m Bertha Burruezo—a high school dropout turned employment lawyer and CEO. The proud daughter of Central American immigrants, I learned early that our roots don’t limit us; they power us.After earning my G.E.D., I worked my way through community college, a four-year university, and graduate school, taught eighth grade in Deltona, Florida, and ultimately graduated at the top of my class from Stetson University College of Law.As the only Spanish-speaking employment attorney in my market, I built a thriving practice serving the Hispanic business community, then stepped in as CEO of a failing startup—transforming it from a six-figure monthly loss into a six-figure-per-month company by leading through crisis and reshaping culture.
