Mery studied at Paterson public school number 9 and graduated from JFK High School where she met her husband Omar Zapata. Together Mery and Omar raised two beautiful babies, Angel and Arianna Zapata. Mery received her associates from Passaic Community College all while being a mother and working fulltime.
