Vanna is a kind, open-minded young woman who recently graduated from high school and is now exploring college and career paths, including the possibility of studying veterinary science. After spending several years in extended foster care and eventually aging out, she is eager to find a stable, supportive environment where she can continue growing and gaining essential life skills. Shy at first, Vanna blossoms when surrounded by encouragement and community. She looks forward to meeting others on similar journeys, learning how to budget and communicate confidently, and building friendships that will help her thrive in adulthood. She is truly excited to grow in a space that values positivity, connection, and personal development.

Music is one of Vanna’s greatest sources of joy and motivation. A poster of the Saja Boys, her favorite K-pop group, would provide daily inspiration and comfort. Displaying it on her wall would be more than just décor—it would serve as a reminder of the things that bring her happiness, confidence, and a sense of connection, especially on challenging days.
