Kyra is an inspiring young woman whose resilience and compassion shine throughout her journey. A lover of fashion, art, and singing, she aged out of foster care and faced homelessness, encountering significant challenges at a young age. Despite these hardships, Kyra's love for animals remained a constant source of hope and direction in her life. Determined to make a difference, she enrolled in Pet Grooming School, motivated by her memories of experiencing a lack of basic care and kindness. Kyra now aspires to work for a nonprofit organization that serves pets in need, providing grooming services to animals in unsafe environments. Her goal is to help these animals feel loved, clean, and ready to find their forever homes—offering them the dignity and care she once longed for herself.

Kyra is a compassionate and creative individual with a deep passion for both pets and design. Currently working as a bather and caretaker for shelter animals, she dedicates her time to improving the well-being of pets in need. Her long-term goal is to become a professional groomer for a nonprofit organization, where she can use her skills to help animals look and feel their best—boosting their chances of being adopted into loving homes. A professional grooming kit will serve as a lasting tool in her journey, empowering her to build confidence, grow her career, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of shelter animals.
