Galilea Gallardo knew exactly what she wanted to build. Cuban Religion, her business specializing in religious items, had a plan, the materials, and the vision behind it. What it needed was the bridge between having a product and finding the people who wanted it.
That is where she got stuck. And that is where One Park Financial came in.
From the very first interaction, Galilea felt something she had not always found when looking for financial support: genuine care. Her questions were answered clearly. The offer came quickly. Nothing was hidden, nothing was vague, and nobody made her feel like just another application in a pile.
"I feel like they also care about my business. After the loan, they asked if I needed help with a website."
That detail matters. Because getting a loan and being supported are two different things. One Park Financial did not close the file after the funding came through. They kept showing up, offering resources, asking what else she needed, and treating her business like it was worth investing in beyond the numbers.
For Galilea, the dream does not stop at Phoenix or even at the national level. She is building toward something global, and she is doing it with a financial partner that she says truly understands what small business owners need: transparency, availability, and someone who picks up the phone.
She is satisfied. She is growing. And she is just getting started.
