Quick Info

Intro

Esli Mendez, whose real name is Aayesli Getsemani Mendez, born August 8, 2011, and now aged 14 years, is an American Gen Z TikTok creator and YouTuber. Now, Esli’s journey as a creator goes all the way back to 2023, when she, just in time before she turned 12, made the decision to post her first TikTok.

Get this, though: Esli had just entered middle school at this time and began posting first on TikTok… her oldest TikTok, although now archived, was a 2023 video titled “who u tryna impress.” Meanwhile, her first YouTube video was from January 2024: “Blindfold, Deaf, Mute Challenge (we tried to make a cake😔) GONE WRONG❓.”

Got it? Well, recently, Aayesli and her boyfriend, whom she has been dating for sometime now, broke up. Her now ex-boyfriend, Jose, was usually a subject of her TikToks until their recent break up. Really, let’s first back this up a bit to where this all started: her early life.

Early Life

Esli Mendez was born on August 8, 2011, in Laredo, Texas, to parents of Mexican ethnic descent. Cue into this: her last name is “Mendez” and one of her sisters, Dana, has the Mexican flag in her bio, and yes, Mendez is a surname with Spanish origin and mostly used by people of Mexican descent.

Now, Esli’s middle name is Getsemani and her first name is Aayesli. She is currently 14 years and no… she is not Gen Z. She is actually Gen Alpha. Her zodiac sign is Leo and yeah, she is originally from Texas,  still lives there with her family.

And, speaking of family, she has two older sisters and one younger brother. Her oldest sister, Dimedilean Gloria Mendez (known as Dilean Mendez), was born in 2006 and is currently 19 years old. Her other sister, Dana Mendez, was born on  July 23, 2009, and is currently 16 years old. Her younger brother’s name is Temu Mendez.

As for her parents, she is quite close with her mom and dad. She featured her dad in a June 2024 video, where she talked about how much she and her siblings loved him.

Education

Esli Mendez graduated elementary school back in 2023, and currently, at age 14, she is a middle schooler… currently in 9th grade. She often shares TikTok about school, although her content type is mainly lip sync, dance trends, and mini vlogs.
