About this Kid

Andre, who prefers to go by “Dre,” loves to experience new things and have adventures. Recently, he has developed a passion for videography, photography, and media editing. Dre states that this is one of his best talents, including the talent and pride he takes in “being himself.” He often practices his creative visual eye by playing and learning from video games and reading graphic novels. His favorite colors are purple, red, black, and pink, and if he could have any superpower, he would prefer to have super strength or speed. Dre finds value in seeking community and has many positive relationships with adults. He thrives in environments that offer support and encouragement. Those who know him best describe him as loving, humorous, and genuine. He is proud of his sneaker collection and loves playing and watching football.

He has an interest in cars and mechanical work too, and is considering technical school to become a welder when he graduates. He loves pets and would be thrilled to have a dog to play with someday. Dre enjoys walking dogs at home and snuggling with them after a long day.
