Alejandro Lopez — Culture as the Blueprint for Business

Alejandro López is the founder of Toma—a small-batch Bloody Mary mix inspired by his Colombian and Cuban roots. In this episode, Alejandro shares how growing up as the only Latino family in his Arizona neighborhood shaped his identity, how he found his way into brand marketing, and what led him to start Toma from a family recipe. We talk about building a business rooted in culture, the creative power of being a solopreneur, and what it means to keep going—even when things get tough. Alejandro’s story is a reminder that our roots aren’t something we have to grow out of. They can be the foundation for everything we build. 🎧 Listen now and follow First Person for more stories like this. Learn more about toma on https://drinktoma.com/

Sonny Caberwal — The Gift of Difference

In this new episode of First Person, I sit down with Sonny Caberwal, an entrepreneur, father, and first-generation American, whose path has been anything but ordinary. Sonny’s journey has taken him from a tight-knit Sikh immigrant community in North Carolina, to becoming the first Sikh model in a Kenneth Cole campaign, to founding companies like Bond and Legends. Along the way, he’s learned to see his difference not as something to overcome, but as a source of power. We talk about growing up between cultures, building confidence from discomfort, the influence of immigrant values on entrepreneurship, and how raising children has deepened his purpose. This episode is full of insight on how identity, risk-taking, and reinvention shape the way we lead, create, and connect. 🎧 Listen now to hear why Sonny believes that “only those willing to be different ever really make a difference.” Connect with Sonny: LinkedIn [https://www.linkedin.com/in/caberwal/] Legends [https://www.buildlegends.com/]

Rachel Gogel — Designing a Life that Works for You

In this episode of First Person with Alejo Largo, I sit down with Rachel Gogel—a Parisian-born, San Francisco-based creative director, educator, and solopreneur. Rachel has led design teams at GQ, The New York Times, Meta, and Airbnb. Today, she runs her own consultancy as a fractional design executive, helping companies set up thoughtful and impactful creative practices.

Rachel shares insights on identity, embracing change, designing her time, and aligning work with personal values. Her story is a powerful example of how our lived experiences—especially as immigrants or first-generation individuals—can shape what we build and who we become. 🎧 Watch now and follow the show for more conversations like this.

A Reflection — Why I Started First Person w/ Alejo Largo

Welcome to a special episode of First Person. This time, it’s just me—your host, Alejo Largo. In this solo episode, I take a few minutes to share more about my story and why I started this podcast. From growing up in Cali, Colombia, to spending summers in New York and studying in Germany, I talk about what it was like to grow up between cultures, move to the U.S. at 17, and find my path in the creative world—learning to stay curious and navigate uncertainty along the way. At the heart of it all is a simple idea:Your lived experiences—especially as an immigrant or first-generation individual—can shape what you build, and even make you a better entrepreneur, creative, or builder. This episode is a reflection on identity, creativity, and the hypothesis that drives First Person. 🎧 Listen now, and if something resonates, I’d love to hear from you.
