Bienvenidos to Cafecito Con HACE, hosted by The Chingona Chair.

At HACE’s annual conference in Chicago, our co-host Alejandra Garza sat down with Pattie Amaro, Director of Talent Acquisition at Blue Cross Blue Shield Association.

In this conversation, Patty shares her journey from growing up in Pilsen to leading talent strategy at one of the largest healthcare organizations in the country—along with her perspective on AI, career growth, and staying rooted in your values.

A short but powerful conversation about resilience, curiosity, and showing up as your authentic self while creating opportunities for others.
