Employee Spotlight: Cositas con Claudia

Sep 25, 2020 3:00:00 AM | Wish HQ Employee Spotlight: Cositas con Claudia

I am an avid Wish shopper and for LatinX Heritage Month, I knew exactly where to look to find some cool items, or rather some “cool cositas”.

¡Hola!

My name is Claudia Reyes, and I work here at Wish as a Content QA Manager on the Content team.

I am a first-generation Mexican-American woman and with the majority of my family still living in Mexico. I grew up being very in touch with my culture and I love to celebrate it in any way possible!

I am an avid Wish shopper and for LatinX Heritage Month, I knew exactly where to look to find some cool items, or rather some “cool cositas”, to pay homage to my culture. The Wish items I found are very special to me as they remind me of some of my favorite family and cultural traditions and I love a cute accessory, it’s the best of both worlds!

Check out some of my favorite picks below:

Loteria Deck- It’s not a proper Mexican celebration without someone busting out the Loteria deck!

Growing up my family never passed up the chance to win a few bucks going head-to-head with our version of bingo. Even before I knew how to play the game I was always mesmerized by the cards' unique designs, so colorful and eye-catching!

Avocado Earrings - Yes, I know guac is extra. Just like these extra cute earrings!

Listen, I don’t know about you but for me, a meal is not complete unless it has some aguacate on the side.

Whether it’s with a plate of Mole de Pollo or just slapped onto a simple tortilla with a bit of queso fresco, my love for avocado runs deep and now I can proudly show that off!

Calavera stickers - Check out these cute Calavera stickers! At $5 total for 50 pieces, they’re an absolute steal!

They come in so many awesome and colorful designs that make them perfect for sticking onto your laptop, journals, binder, anywhere really.

I personally like showing them off on my hydro flask.
