As Corporate Counsel for Marketing and Advertising at Lowe’s, a Fortune 50 company, she’s achieved a goal she set for herself in law school—becoming in-house marketing counsel. Reflecting on her journey, Laura’s friend often reminds her, “You’re doing it.

As Vice President of Technology for Amazon's Finance Automation team, Diane Gonzalez excels at building and revitalizing teams, driving them to reach new heights. With over thirty years of experience in software management—from relational databases to cloud technologies—Gonzalez is also a passionate advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion. Growing up in Ohio during the 1960s, Gonzalez and her family faced daily discrimination, experiences that shaped her inclusive leadership approach. “In almost every organization I’ve led, the teams I take on don’t feel like they have a voice,” she shares. “I know what that’s like. When people know you have their backs, it empowers them to take risks and excel.” Since joining Amazon in 2015 as Vice President of the AWS Commerce Platform, Gonzalez transformed a team struggling with morale into a thriving organization, reducing attrition and expanding from 150 to nearly 2,000 members over six years.

Latinas made a remarkable impact on the U.S. economy, contributing $1.3 trillion to the GDP in 2021—almost double the $661 billion from 2010. This growth rate is nearly triple that of non-Latinos, as highlighted in a recent report funded by Bank of America and conducted by California Lutheran University and UCLA. Economist Matthew Fienup, one of the report’s authors, emphasized that Latinas are vital to the U.S. economy, outpacing their gender and ethnic peers in workforce participation, educational attainment, and income growth. In fact, the $1.3 trillion contribution by Latinas rivals the GDP of Florida and is only surpassed by California, Texas, and New York.
