Ilianna, 19 years old, Originally from Manhattan, Attends New Heights Neighborhood Center in Washington Heights

My name is Ilianna, I’m 19 years old and I’m from Manhattan. I grew up in a neighborhood call Washington heights where I grown to know myself. The way people know me is by Lily that would be my nickname. Also, my family is from Dominican Republic in an area called Santiago, Licey. I believe that I’m a very active person and willing to do anything positive to help out the community. My favorite place in the world would be my home. I think that being at home with the people I love, make me feel safe and happier.
