Joel stands out for his determination, kindness, and quiet confidence. He has been settling into his foster home along with his siblings. Joel approaches challenges with patience and a strong sense of responsibility, often stepping into leadership roles without even realizing it. Whether he is helping his younger siblings, supporting friends through tough moments, or staying focused on long-term goals, he demonstrates maturity well beyond his years. Joel has a deep love for music and is rarely seen without his headphones. Outside of music, he enjoys gaming, playing basketball with friends, and spending time outdoors—especially on long walks where he can clear his mind. He has a big heart and notices when someone is left out. Joel takes the time to listen and shows genuine empathy in every interaction.

Joel has been thriving in his foster home. He wishes to have a new cologne—something fresh and uplifting that makes him feel confident and put together. Having his own signature scent would give him a sense of maturity and personal style, making it a meaningful gift that he would truly appreciate.
