Jesus, 18 years old, CA
Jesus has overcome more than many others his age. He entered the foster system at just 7 years old and grew up in a small town where life was often difficult. Witnessing violence at a young age left him with lasting trauma, but Jesus has demonstrated remarkable strength and resilience in addressing it. He finds peace and focus by staying active, especially in the gym, where boxing and working with the punching bag help him channel his energy in a positive way. Jesus is a fighter in every sense of the word, and his journey is just beginning.
