Jose Moguel immigrated to the United States from Vera Cruz, Mexico to work and provide a better life for his family which includes his wife of 7 years and their three children ages 3, 6, and 9. He holds traditional gender roles and religious beliefs as a strict Catholic who believes in practices like black magic and superstition. While he misses the food from Mexico and finds American food bland, he appreciates the better work and healthcare opportunities in the U.S. despite difficulties with language barriers.
