is a first-generation Mexican-American.
His parents are from the city of León in
the state of Guanajuato, Mexico.
Vazquez was born in Chicago and
attended elementary school there, but
spent several of his high school years in
Mexico. Even though he graduated from
high school in Mexico, he was still
required to complete 3 ½ yrs of high
school in Chicago to get an American
diploma.

MILILANI TOWN, Hawaii -
What do Guadalajara,
San Diego, Tijuana, Ross
Dress for Less, water
polo and taquerias have
in common? Each of
these factors
contributed to the
success of 26-year-old
entrepreneur Jésus
Santoyo, owner of Just
Tacos restaurants on
Oahu.
Due to a variety of reasons, including the present state of the
economy, price of oil, and an uncertain economic forecast, several
restaurants in the state -- some of them long-time neighborhood icons
-- have closed or are closing. But Just Tacos is expanding. And no one
that knows Santoyo is surprised.
Jesus Santoyo
Our rings are inter-related We were raised in America by lucky chance... We live in Hawaii by geographical choice... But, we are Hispanic --- by the grace of God!
