Ten-year-old JJ is a bright boy who loves life, and everything it has to offer.
The fearless fourth grader has a wide variety of interests like riding his bike, creating music inspired by his favorite singer, Ariana Grande, or showing off his creative side by styling wings.
JJ is easy-going and sociable, with a great group of friends. He also has great relationships with his siblings that he hopes to continue with his new family.
At school, his favorite subjects are music, art, and English. He is on track with the rest of his class and does well with his peers.
