Brooklyn has been in foster care for a couple of years. Despite facing challenges, she remains determined. Her father is in prison, and her mother has health problems. Even after being removed from her home, Brooklyn continues to support her mother. She is kind, caring, and always ready to help others. Throughout her time in various foster homes, she struggled with a lack of privacy and freedom. Brooklyn is currently working on completing her GED and dreams of becoming a traveling nurse. She aims to attend nursing school for CNA or RN certification and eventually go to medical school to become a doctor. Her experiences have fueled her passion for helping others. Brooklyn is a girly girl who loves makeup, doing her hair and nails, and spending time with friends. Her radiant smile lights up every room she enters.

Brooklyn has been diligently working to catch up and complete her GED. So far, she has successfully passed two of her exams and is currently focused on preparing for another. Her dream is to become a nurse, and she wishes for an Apple iPad, which would significantly help her stay organized and access her study materials easily, regardless of her location. With an iPad, Brooklyn aims to enhance her learning experience as she strives towards her goal.
