DreamHour Speaker Series: Corin and Gwenda Reyes

The DreamHour Speaker Series is made up of leaders within the local community, sharing their experiences and their hopes for creating a better tomorrow.

Corin Reyes

Registered nurse with 15 years of nursing experience, certified in social determinants of health, master’s in healthcare data analytics, and research candidate. As a passion project, I collaborated with my friends to create Naturally You, a health and beauty expo promoting health and wellness for women of color. Currently, I am honored to work as the Director of Health Equity for YWCA San Antonio. My greatest accomplishment is being the mother of two young women whom I hope will change the world one day.
