When Silvia Tenezaca encounters obstacles thrown her way, she conquers them with grace.
She overcame a family tragedy and medical crisis, economic challenges, and a language barrier to complete her bachelor’s degree in nursing at Rutgers University‒Camden.
To escape poverty and a dearth of jobs in Ecuador, Tenezaca came to the United States in 2002 at the age of 21 to join family members in Brooklyn. Working at a dry cleaning business, she improved her English language skills by speaking to people at her job and by watching TV.
“My desire to attend college was stronger than any language barriers,” says Tenezaca, of Sicklerville.
