CHAPTER 2 - Her Childhood...
The women in her family gave her a lot of the strength that she has today. For three generations they built a family, built a business, built a home. They started with nothing, because the men of her family left them.
As soon as her dad got divorced from her mom, he came to Diana and said: "it is time for you to leave because my plans do not involve you".

CHAPTER 3 - Her Education...
When she was young, she started studying at Colegio Internacional Cañaveralejo in Cali Colombia.
From her school years, she had interest in science and questioned the roles that are traditionally associated with women.
Determined to overcome the economic difficulties that her family faced in Colombia, she moved to the United States at the age of seventeen with only $300.
In order to improve her language skills, she started English lessons at Miami Dade College while working as a housekeeper, among other jobs.
Inspired by a magazine article about the role of women working on aerospace missions and having self-confidence in her strong mathematical skills, Diana Trujillo enrolled initially at the University of Florida to pursue studies in Aerospace Engineering.
While studying at the university, she decided to apply for the NASA Academy, being the first Hispanic immigrant woman admitted to the program.
