Family Story:
Marisela was born here in Ensenada and was married at the age of 20, having her first child when she was 21. She is separated from her husband and in the process of a divorce because he has never made the effort to make life better for his family and never wanted to move out of his mothers house to create a family unit of his own; this caused a lot of distress for Marisela. Marisela wants to be able to provide a home that is safe and clean for her children, something that is better than what they have been living in. Marisela wants to see her kids finish school and be able to thrive in life, so she is doing what she thinks if best for them. Currently, Marisela works braiding tourists hair, and when there are no tourists she looks for other jobs like cleaning houses, packaging products, etc.
