In the Judeo-Christian tradition, Genesis is the first book of the Pentateuch and, therefore, also of the Old Testament of the Bible. Honoring its etymology—it comes from the Greek γένεσις which means birth, creation or origin— Genesis recounts the creation of the world, the beginnings of humanity and the history of the ancestors of God's chosen people.

Regina Calzada de Romero, with the support of her family, designed and manufactured handmade leather women's footwear, thinking of all those women who wanted to take on the world.

Like the true disruptor that she is, Regina decided to name the brand after herself. Beyond a company, she sought to empathize and relate to her peers, those first women who paved the way for us in the labor market, those who began to occupy increasingly prestigious positions, women who were their reflection.

Those who stood up for gender equality almost sixty years ago, both at home and in public life, fought for their place in higher education institutions, in male-dominated fields of work and spaces in politics and diplomacy, are my source of greatest admiration and respect.
