From Undocumented to Immigration Attorney with Kelly Dominguez

Welcome to episode 45 of The American Dream in The Eyes of Immigrants Podcast. I am your host, Heidy De La Cruz, and I am on a mission to change the narrative of immigration one immigrant story at a time! Today’s guest is Kelly Dominguez. Kelly is an injury and immigration attorney. She was born in Mexico and lived there until she was about five because after her parents divorced, her mother wasn’t able to make ends meet and saw the United States as an opportunity to better her life and her children’s lives. Her mom left first to get settled, and then she sent for Kelly and her brother. She was five, and he was seven. She explains how they separated them to cross the border and were reunited in Arizona and then flew to New Jersey to be reunited with their mom. Because Kelly came through the border, she was undocumented. Luckily, she was able to get her legal status, and now she’s an attorney helping others in the immigrant community. Listen to her incredible story of triumph on episode 45 of The American Dream in The Eyes of Immigrants Podcast! With Love, Heidy P.S.
