A person who I admire on my field: Griselda Hinojosa 

Griselda Hinojosa (1875-1959) was the first Pharmaceutical woman in Chile, she studied at the private school of girls Rafael Valdés and then in the school of girls of Copiapó. Then she entered to study Pharmaceutical at the University of Chile where she recieved her tittle the december 4th, 1899. She was part of the first group of women who get a Universitary tittle in Chile after the Amunátegui Decree on 1877, between those was doctors  Eloísa Díaz (1886) and Ernestina Pérez (1887), and the lawyers Matilde Throup (1892) and Matilde Brandau (1898).

She started a society with Percival Rojas on 1900, the Copiapó Drugstore until 1909. after that she worked on the Manuel Antonio Matta Pharmacy wich she was the owner with her husband.
  

I like her because was the first Pharmaceutical in Chile, even when on those years the education was almost exclusive for man, I think she was a really brave women and she shows with other women like Eloísa Díaz or Matilde Brandau that women can study.
