Bam, 21 years old, CA
Bam entered the foster system at the age of seven, carrying more strength than many people realize. Through years of change and uncertainty, she learned resilience, self-trust, and compassion. As a trans woman, Bam is comfortable and confident in her identity, embracing it with pride and authenticity. Creativity became her outlet, and nails turned into her passion. As a nail technician, she uses art, precision, and care to help others feel confident. Now, she is focused on the future, working diligently to earn her license and build a life she loves.
