Wendolly Esparza was born in Illinois, but hails from the central Mexican state of Aguascalientes and has two siblings (one brother and one sister). She graduated from the Loyola University Chicago's School of Communication with a bachelor's degree in journalism with a minor in Latin American Literature in 2013.

Nuestra Belleza México 2014

Wendolly Esparza competed in and won her state's preliminary contest Nuestra Belleza Aguascalientes 2014 in order to advance to the national competition Nuestra Belleza México. She eventually beat out thirty-one other contestants from all over the country during the 2014 edition of that nationwide event directed by former Miss Universe Lupita Jones. Esparza's crowning, which automatically gave her the right of representing Mexico at the Miss Universe 2015 pageant, took place at the Jardines de México park in Jojutla, Morelos on October 25, 2014. In Miss Universe she placed in the top fifteen.
