Mario is a bright and kind young man. He has overcome many difficult life circumstances, including foster care, and is fully enjoying a recent placement with a family. Mario has a huge heart for animals. He heaps affection on his own cat and often wants to stop at a local shelter to interact with cats and dogs who don’t have a home. He loves movies, making meals with his family, and creating amazing structures with Legos. Mario is a kind, curious, and respectful young man with a talent for problem-solving in challenging situations in innovative ways.

Mario was recently placed back with family and has been happily settling in. They bond over their shared love of cooking and learning how to make new dishes. Mario has started to dive into Korean cuisine! He'd like an electric hotpot/grill to learn how to make hot pot and Korean BBQ. It's a versatile appliance that he can use to cook many different cuisines.
