Title: Owner & CEO
Organization: Latino Tax Corp.
Judith Deniz Bucio is the owner
and CEO of Latino Tax Corp., a
tax office located in the heart of
Hermosa, a historical communi-
ty located in the northwest side
of Chicago. At Latino Tax Corp.,
Bucio coaches small busines-
ses on managing their books
and achieving financial success.
Inspired by her own personal
struggles as an immigrant, she
serves the Hispanic community
and educates it on the complexi-
ties of the U.S. tax system.
Bucio's perseverance and
drive led her first to real estate.
Soon after becoming a DACA
recipient, Bucio became a
mortgage loan officer. Today,
Latino Tax Corp has a team of
four full-time employees and
thousands of returning clients.
Bucio was born in Morelia,
Michoacan, Mexico. Her educa
-
tion in the United States began
in the second grade. In 2001 her
world was shaken after learning
that college was not an option
due to her immigration status.
Growing up in the land of op-
portunity but without citizens-
hip, it appeared almost impos-
sible for Bucio to achieve her
dreams, much less wealth.
After knocking on many
doors, Bucio decided to start
her own business in tax prepa-
ration. With online courses, se-
minars, in-person classes, and
the IRS website, Bucio obtai-
ned her tax preparer certifica-
tion. In 2009, she founded La-
tino Tax Corp. At age 21 Bucio
purchased her first real estate
property. Today her portfolio
includes five properties netting
over $1.5 million in equity.
Bucio is a mother and
best friend to five beautiful
children, and a wife to a hus-
band who supports her 100%
on everything she pursues.
Among her biggest achieve-
ments is overcoming the limi-
tations of an immigrant and
living a fulfilling life.

WORDS OF WISDOM:
"D
on't let limitations deter you
from pursuing success, but
rather ignite your passion, purpose
and creativity. Daunting for most
but worth the ride. "Recuerda si
fuera fácil todo el mundo lo haría"
("Remember, If it were easy,
everyone would do it.")."
