"I learned at a very young age that my parents were undocumented." — Diane Guerrero

'Forrest Gump' has been one of my favorite movies of all time.

We were like any other family with the same troubles and some of the same happy moments.

I definitely had to pave my own path, which wasn't always the easiest thing to do.

I think one of my best qualities is my ability to empathize with people. Perhaps it's because my journey has been so bumpy.
