Willow, 20 years old, OR

Willow has had a difficult life. She entered foster care when she was six and spent almost ten years moving between different homes before being adopted at fifteen. Throughout this time, writing helped her cope and understand her experiences. Now a college student studying journalism, she wants to become an author. In her spare time, she enjoys attending poetry slams, where she listens to others and shares her own work that reflects her dreams and inspirations.
