Alexis, 20 years old, CA
Alexis is a creative and determined young woman who has faced a challenging home life and foster care experience, yet she still has much to offer. Her journey through foster care began at the age of six, and she has lived in four different foster homes. One adoption attempt fell through because she didn't want to be separated from her brother. Alexis is musically talented; she plays the guitar, piano, ukulele, and a bit of trumpet. She has started recording her own songs and is considering a career in music. Despite her troubled past and inconsistent life circumstances, she remains very optimistic and is always eager to solve problems. Alexis is also generous and enjoys sharing her kindness and energy with those around her.
