Briar

Sometimes I can be all over the place, but that's just because I'm a creative soul. Moving from a small town to a big city has been a real challenge. Since my mom passed away, I feel even more lost about who I am. I might be a bit clueless, but I'm lucky to have my two roommates to help me figure things out. I'm determined to find my own identity and make a difference in the world. I want to keep alive the kindness and understanding my mom always showed.
