Lourdes Mena—Lula, as she’s affectionately called—has a smile that lights up the room.
She laughs often, and she’s got a silly side that gets other people laughing too.
She’s the kind of person who sees the beauty in the world, something that has come in handy in her work as a gifted designer. Lula creates more than beautiful jewelry, though: “I use my designs as agents of social change,” she says.
