 Hello, my name is Erika Alfaro and I am very excited to share with all of you that this year I'll be the keynote speaker for the Catezo conference. Some of you might remember my graduation picture, the picture where I'm standing in the middle of the field with my farm worker parents. That picture made headlines around the world and during this conference I'll be sharing the story behind that picture. I will be sharing my educational journey as an ELD student. If you are an ELD teacher or an ELD student, you will benefit from this conference. I am so happy that now we get to meet in person and I am looking forward to meeting all of you.
