Elyvia has spent most of her childhood in foster care, moving from home to home, but she is now in a more permanent situation. She is an avid reader, a member of the Michigan Youth Opportunity, and dreams of becoming a hairdresser to make other people feel beautiful. Elyvia enjoys spending time with her friends, doing her hair and make-up, and taking her small dog, which serves as her emotional support animal, on several walks a day.
