Isaiah spends most of his free time behind a set of drums, whether it's the real kit his current foster family managed to find secondhand or just his hands tapping out rhythms on any surface nearby. Music is where he feels most like himself, and he's taught himself most of what he knows by watching videos online. Isaiah has been in foster care since he was eleven, moving through two placements before landing in his current, more stable one about a year ago. He's guarded with adults at first, a result of some early disappointments in the system, but he's fiercely loyal to the handful of friends he's kept through his moves. Isaiah has faced real instability through his early teen years, and he deserves consistent support and encouragement as he keeps building his passion and his trust in the people around him.
