Hi, I'm Mariana!
I'm a journalist, product manager, and first-generation immigrant.
​
I started Arrivals because, even before I immigrated, I was fascinated by what drives people to uproot their lives and start over in a new country. What does it take to build a career, a community, a sense of identity, while staying connected to where you come from?
​
Every immigrant story is layered, messy, and unique. I wanted to hear more of them and connect with women who take bold steps into the unknown.
Arrivals brings honest, in-depth conversations with first-generation immigrants who share what it looks like to build a life across borders. I admire every guest I speak with, and I hope you’ll find their stories as inspiring as I do.
​
Thanks for listening—and for being here.
