The third-year law student spent the first five years of her life in the Soviet Union before coming to the US. Her parents took advantage of a rare opportunity to get a visa shortly before the dissolution of the Soviet Union. According to Tashlitsky, the American consulate was allowing people to obtain visas directly from the Soviet Union but the opportunity was fleeting. Tashlitsky's father informed her that he was the final person to acquire a visa before the office closed. The Soviet only permitted its people to travel to Israel if they were Jewish so Tashlitsky's parents claimed that they were going to Israel through the US. However, Tashlitsky's family, who are not actually Jewish, got off the plane in the US and stayed.

Although her parents, who were both professors, did not have any contacts in the US, Tashlitsky says that they took a chance and made the journey in the hopes of finding more opportunities here. Tashlitsky points out that there were not very many opportunities, especially for women, in the Soviet Union. Today her parents live in Southern California, which is where they ended up after their arrival in the US. They are both working as software engineers.
