Since she was a child, Lizett has been involved in business, as she worked during her summer holidays in her aunt's shop in one of Magdalena's shopping centres. She watched her mother sell food at the market from the age of five,
In this way, Lizett learned to be a merchant, and by the age of 15, she already had her first business at school, bringing sweets and desserts that she prepared herself to sell during recess.
These experiences gave her the confidence and conviction to pursue her talent for business and choose a career in international business. Today, Lizett Meneses has established a company that is beginning to import goods. She also supports her husband's business.
Lizett Meneses currently serves as first counsellor in her ward's Relief Society and as a self-reliance class facilitator.
She has also held callings as Relief Society president, stake Primary president, seminary teacher, institute teacher, Young Women president, stake Young Men leader, and has served as a missionary in the Chiclayo Peru Mission.
Her dream job is to have an industrial company that develops products in her country and exports them abroad. She also wants to import products under her own brand to position it in her country.
