Nayeli was born in Arizona, and raised both in New York and Olathe, which is where she currently resides. She is currently taking classes at Johnson County Community College, and plans to persue a degree in veterinary technology. She has three cats, a rescue named Canela, a domestic shorthair named Simba, and a siamese named Minina. Adopting her rescue cat gave her a passion for helping animals and inspiration to join the veterinary field.

In her free time, Nayeli enjoys soccer and singing in her church choir.
