Ana was raised in Victoria de las Tunas, Cuba, where she distinguished herself as a pillar of the community, by being co-founder of the city’s distinguished Business College and her entrepreneurial endeavors.

After moving to the US in 1966, Ana settled with family, in Boston, Massachusetts. She then secured a position with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts.
