Laura Amores: From working in a pizzeria in Hialeah to becoming a successful Cuban entrepreneur in the USA.

In 2014, at the age of 28, he arrived in the United States "empty-handed."


Behind the Cuban Laura Amores lies a story of success, but also of much sacrifice, study, work, and persistence.

When she left Cuba at the age of 28, she never imagined that she would become a successful businesswoman in the United States with four businesses under her management. In an interview for "Destino Tolk," Laura shared how she managed to become a successful woman.

In Cuba, she studied accounting and finance, marketing, public relations, auditing, and management, and even took a management course. Before emigrating with her husband and their four-year-old daughter, through a claim process initiated by her father, she was working in a hotel on the island, specifically in accounting.

"We arrived with empty hands," she recalls when speaking about her early days in Miami in 2014 when she started working at a pizzeria in Hialeah, until she moved on as a salesperson to a company that sold truck parts and components.

The first years she acknowledges were very difficult; she and her husband barely saw each other due to their work schedules, and her father took care of the little girl so that she could study after work.

Laura decided with her partner to venture out and start their own accounting and tax business. In the first year, she only did the taxes for herself, her husband, and her father, but by the second year, family and friends began to trust her, and the business started to grow. By the height of the pandemic, they already had enough clients to open an office.

"Nothing comes from the heights, everything has to start from scratch," he asserts from his own experience.

"I feel proud of myself," she adds, and it's no wonder, since in addition to her tax business, she already has a beauty treatment company, another one for medical services for seniors at home that is in the process of expansion, and a clinical laboratory.

Laura Amores' expectations don't stop there; she wants to continue growing and motivating others to start their own ventures and show them that any growth is possible as long as one fights for it.
