STUDENT STORIES
First and Proud
Yenileisy, like many Florida Atlantic University students, is the first in her family to attend a four-year university. Originally from Caibarién, Cuba, her family moved to the United States in search of better opportunities for both their children. As a result of their many sacrifices and consistent support, she attributes her accomplishments thus far to both her parents and older sister, Yesenia. Inspired by her academic journey and her Father, Yenileisy intends to pursue Law in hopes to work for the United Nations.
