One Man Turns to Entrepreneurial Dream for Empowerment
Matt Zambrano, a Joliet native and third generation Mexican American, shifted from weighing packages at the post office to building a computer based business selling pagers and telecom services. He cites The Americano Dream by Lionel Sosa as spark for risk taking and independence. Zambrano aims to earn 180000 by 2003 and pursues web ventures with his wife Marisa, balancing Latino heritage with Anglo values while facing family violence and poverty reminders.
