Andre, 17 years old, VA
Andre has been in care since he was fourteen, moving through a couple of placements before landing somewhere stable not long ago, and he's still cautious about trusting that this one will last. He's quiet and observant, notices details others miss, and is slowly opening up to his current foster family after some early boundary-testing. Andre spends most weekends restoring an old bike he found abandoned behind his foster placement, slowly replacing parts and teaching himself mechanics through trial and error and a lot of online tutorials. He's a hands-on, self-taught problem solver who's more comfortable working with his hands than sitting through a lecture, though he's kept his grades steady enough to stay on track for graduation. He's interested in eventually working toward a trade, possibly in auto repair or welding. Andre has faced real instability through his teenage years, and he deserves continued stability and encouragement as he builds toward his future.
