Nayelly Sanchez came to the United States when she was 6, on July 4, 1996. Her mother had cancer and needed to get chemotherapy. Her tests and medications were too expensive which is what brought them to the US, to pay back the money. Her dad had to stay in Mexico for a few months while Nayelly, her mother, and her sisters left their home country for a new land. Other than language being a barrier, they all had to learn a new culture and traditions. Going to school, making new friends and not being able to see their dad was just a few of her obstacles.

Nayelly is currently a preschool teacher at Delaware Technical Community College while she is getting her degree in education. She aspires to become a pediatrician someday.
