Louis and Cicily invited Jayro Padilla to come on to Just Life to talk about his experience of the legal removal process in order to gain citizenship. Jayro has been living in the United States for the majority of his life, but he was forced to leave his family and friends mid-way through his senior year of high school.
He talks about his challenges, setbacks, positive experiences, and overall, how he made it through the process. He also spoke about how living in the US without citizenship has played a role in his life, cultural shocks, and the benefits of being bilingual.
If anyone is going through a similar experience or if you just want to connect with Jayro, his Instagram is @jayro.padilla1987
