Despite having traveled the world for the past eight years as a fashion model, Mendoza feels at home in the U.S. and believes there are many opportunities for her here. She will be studying at the New York Film Academy and plans on pursuing several avenues, including acting, small business ownership, and continued support of HIV/AIDS awareness.

What makes Dayana particularly special, states Wildes, is that “immigration approved the case in seven days based on our demonstration of her success.”
