Fatima faced a lot of uncertainty in the foster care system. Fatima is determined to continue her education and pursue her goals with the same drive and commitment that she brings to everything she does. She’s not only hardworking but also incredibly polite and respectful, qualities that make her a positive influence on those around her. In her free time, Fatima enjoys taking her dog on walks, cooking meals, listening to music, and exploring new places, all of which help her unwind and stay balanced. As she continues to grow, Fatima is learning how to adapt and become more independent, steadily working toward a future where she can achieve her dreams and make a difference in the world.

Fatima enjoys using makeup as a form of self-expression, where each look allows her to showcase her creativity. She believes that nonverbal communication can sometimes speak louder than words, and that makeup serves as a way to express her moods, ideas, and identity without saying a word. Whether it’s through a bold lip, a fresh glow, or a smoky eye, it’s all about embracing individuality.
