Today we’d like to introduce you to Laritza Garcia.
Hi Laritza , so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I started the magazine in 2018 under the name Hola Katy, with a strong focus on the local community. Before launching it, I had worked with other magazines, which gave me valuable experience in publishing and media.
As the magazine grew over the next three years, so did our vision. We realized we were doing much more than covering a single community we were highlighting the stories, achievements, and journeys of remarkable people. That evolution led us to rebrand the publication as Rostros Magazine, a name that better reflects our mission of celebrating the faces behind success, leadership, and positive impact.
Today, Rostros Magazine has become a respected luxury publication that connects communities, tells inspiring stories, and creates opportunities through editorial features, digital media and exclusive events.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
It has definitely not been a smooth road. Like many entrepreneurs, I have faced financial challenges, the pressure of building a brand from the ground up, and the responsibility of earning the trust of both readers and advertisers. I also had to balance growing the business while raising my family and overcoming personal challenges.
One of the biggest lessons has been learning to adapt. The media industry is constantly changing, so I have had to reinvent the magazine, embrace digital platforms, and continue creating value for our clients and community. Every obstacle has made me stronger and has reinforced my commitment to the mission behind Rostros Magazine.
Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
Rostros Magazine is a luxury lifestyle and business publication dedicated to highlighting entrepreneurs, professionals, community leaders, and inspiring individuals who are making a positive impact. More than a magazine, we are a platform that helps people and brands increase their visibility, credibility, and influence through high-quality editorial storytelling, professional photography, digital media, and exclusive networking events.
What sets us apart is our commitment to excellence, elegance, and meaningful connections. We don’t simply feature businesses, we tell the stories behind their success and create opportunities for collaboration within our community. Since launching in 2018, we have grown from a local publication into a respected media brand known for producing premium editions and signature events that celebrate leadership, entrepreneurship, and achievement.
I am most proud of the trust we have built with our readers, clients, and partners. Every edition reflects our mission to inspire, connect, and recognize those who are shaping our communities while maintaining the highest editorial standards.
What’s next?
My vision is to continue growing Rostros Magazine into one of the leading luxury media brands for the Hispanic community in the United States. We are expanding beyond print by strengthening our digital presence, producing more exclusive events, podcasts, and video content that connect entrepreneurs, professionals, and community leaders.
I also look forward to growing our nonprofit, Rostros Care, to create more opportunities for single mothers and families of children with special needs. At the same time, I want to continue building strategic partnerships with national and international brands while expanding our reach into new markets.
More than anything, my goal is to leave a legacy by creating platforms that inspire, recognize excellence, and help people and businesses grow. Every new edition, event, and initiative is another step toward that vision.
