Troy

Troy, born June 26, 1997 is a smart, easy-going young man who will steal your heart. This 11-year-old enjoys learning and lists his favorite subjects in school as math, reading, science, social studies and gym where playing basketball wins hands down. Outside of school, Troy spends his time playing video games on his Nintendo - something he’s become an expert at. Asked what he likes most about himself, he says he’s glad he’s smart and in shape, handsome too, but adds that he’d like to get better at ignoring some negative behaviors. Mr. Chris, a unit supervisor, is the person he most admires because as Troy says, “he never stops trying.” For the future, Troy wants to go to college to be a scientist and “clone things.” If he had three wishes, they’d include an end to killing and for everyone, everywhere to have a good, healthy and successful life.
