Jessica Mendoza : (2) " I grew up in a big Mexican family and… we always were so comfortable in our own skin. So society, the stuff that I think we see a lot now for young girls, didn’t really reach me because I had this huge Mexican bubble around me saying, ‘You’re beautiful. You’re amazing. You’re strong. And be you.’ " - Jessica Mendoza " To be honest my first memories are getting to know players. I remember being on the bus probably like 3, 4, 5 years old, and my dad would always say go sit with the players in the back. " - Jessica Mendoza
