Anika is a creative person who loves to tell stories through art. She combines her sketches with music to make expressive videos that reflect each song’s meaning. Right now, she’s making a flipbook video that shows how music resonates with her. After spending time in foster care because of her mother’s struggles with mental health and substance use, and dealing with a father who struggled to cope, coming home has been tough. Still, she is determined to create a better future. She enjoys spending time with her younger sister, and they dream of having a safe home together. Anika has a sweet tooth and loves adding sugar to her food, but she’s also working on a healthier lifestyle, focusing on balance and flavor in her meals, just like she does with her art.
