Michael entered the foster care system at birth and recently aged out, carrying with him a strong sense of purpose and compassion. He is committed to his goals and has a deep love for cooking, a hobby that brings him joy and creativity. In his free time, he enjoys coloring, playing video games, and spending time with others through board games. Michael’s long-term dream is to become a social worker so he can give back to the community—especially to youth who are currently in the foster care system. His desire to help others stems from his own lived experiences, and he hopes to be a source of support and understanding for those in need.
