She takes pride in volunteering when not at work. Sanchez has had the immense gratification of being able to have spent time teaching to schools for the deaf and blind in Guatemala, Morocco, Turkey and Colombia. Also, donate food and clothes to those in need and even to strays. 

Because American sign language or ASL is her primary language, written form of communication via text or email is probably the best way to reach out to her. However, Gayle also speaks English Spanish and even Arabic.
