Kechi Okwuchi is a Nigerian-born singer, survivor and inspirational speaker. She has overcome tremendous adversity, including a plane crash that killed everyone but two passengers, to become a celebrated performer as a finalist on America's Got Talent and a sought-after motivational figure. Kechi Okwuchi was an only child in Nigeria until she was 11, growing up in a loving family. On December 10th, 2005, she was a 16-year-old on a flight home for Christmas when the plane crashed, killing all but two of the 109 passengers. Kechi suffered third degree burns over 65% of her body and was in a coma for five weeks before waking up to her mother hovering over her with love and care. Kechi had to go through frequent surgeries during her seven-month recovery, but with her mother's support she was able to stay strong and eventually heal.
