The bilingual media outlet invites the local community to “In Conversation with Alexis Meruelo” at the Wells Fargo Auditorium at the University of Nevada, Reno
RENO, NEV (April 21, 2026) — Noticiero Móvil is proud to host businesswoman and philanthropist Alexis Meruelo for a reading and discussion of her debut book, “Getting You Ready for Power,” which was released on April 14 and earned Amazon bestseller status on its first day. The event on April 28 at 5pm at the Wells Fargo Auditorium at UNR will feature an in-depth conversation with the author about the fundamental moments that shaped her personal journey to self-empowerment to help encourage powerful exchanges and motivate change in future generations.
As the chief purpose and vision officer for the Meruelo Group, Alexis is driven to transform and create equity for underrepresented communities across industries. She also provides scholarships to students in Nevada seeking higher education. During her “Business of Her” conferences, she has brought together hundreds of women across industries for programming focused on leadership, career growth and entrepreneurship, creating a platform that encourages connection, confidence and tangible next steps for those stepping into higher roles.
Alexis Meruelo shared that “I believe it is important to collaborate with Noticiero Móvil because of the message I want to share with college students, jóvenes en la comunidad, and the broader Reno community: if we want to achieve something, we have to give it our full effort, regardless of success or failure, because you will always regret not trying.”
This collaboration between Noticiero Móvil and Alexis Meruelo sparked from the realization that women, Latinos, and area residents benefit when we work together toward self-healing, intentional and healthy relationship building, and self-empowerment. Once you develop yourself, it facilitates how we enrich communities — on and beyond the UNR campus.
“Inviting a powerful Latina leader and influencer to Reno was important to Noticiero Móvil, especially when the discussion centers around the real-life challenges facing our community and its young people,” Claudia Cruz, managing editor of Noticiero Móvil said. “Alexis advocates for everyone and her story, advice and enthusiasm deserve to be shared.”
“Getting You Ready for Power” is available for purchase on Amazon and at retailers nationwide. To access free tickets for the event please check the Noticiero Móvil news site at www.noticieromovil.com. More information about Alexis Meruelo can be found at alexismeruelo.com.
