About Special Guest Reader Jazmín Dreas Jazmín is a mother of two who loves reading stories and sharing her culture with everyone she meets. Born and raised on the beautiful island of the Dominican Republic, Jazmín came to Rochester through a scholarship program at the Rochester Institute of Technology. After putting her engineering career on hold to focus on raising her children, she began to frequent many local libraries and noticed a need; there was a lack of consistent Spanish story time programs for families in the community. Inspired to help fill that gap, she began leading Spanish story time at local libraries each month. Jazmín loves singing, playing the ukulele, and reading enthusiastically to children of all ages.
