Kia entered care at 3 years old, experienced a disrupted adoption at 13, and was back in care through age 18 before becoming homeless. Despite those challenges, she has worked hard to become independent and started on her leadership journey as an advocate for child welfare systems change in Minnesota. Kia wants to own her own "misfits" coffee shop in the future, with a black-and-pink theme, known for their deli sandwiches, where everyone feels welcome. In her free time, she likes to read, spend time with friends, and watch horror movies.
