SUSAN RAMIREZ AUSTIN ANGELS FOUNDER
Buda, Texas WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE TITLES FOR YOURSELF AND WHY?
I like to be called Mom, Wife, and Leader. Leading Austin Angels and watching it expand into National Angels has been both thrilling and rewarding. However, the greatest joy of my life is raising my two boys with my best friend. Being their mom is the greatest privilege I have ever had, and it brings me true joy. WHO ARE YOUR ROLE MODELS OR MENTORS?
My mom is so selfless, and her love for children has translated into how I live my life. She inspires me to love unconditionally and extend that love to those who need it most. Also, the late Dr. Karen Pervis created Trust-Based Relational Intervention, without which we would not have the foundation of the Austin Angels mission. She gives me hope that what I am doing with National and Austin Angels matters to the success of foster care children as
