Monique is a dedicated hard worker. She entered foster care at the age of 11 and experienced several moves between different foster homes. Understanding that working was essential for her future independence, she began working during high school. Currently, she is a student pursuing a career as a labor and delivery nurse. In the past, she juggled multiple jobs to keep herself busy, but she has now found a full-time position that she enjoys. Monique loves spending time outdoors; her favorite activities include going for walks in the neighborhood and relaxing at the local park. She cherishes the fresh air and is excited to share these experiences with her new baby. Additionally, Monique is a self-proclaimed "foodie." She enjoys eating and cooking and eagerly anticipates the day she will have her own kitchen to explore her passion for food even more.
