Meet Alex

Read any good books lately? Alex would love to discuss them with you! From Harry Potter to historical novels, Alex loves diving into a great book and having someone to talk to about them. He not only loves to read, Alex is also an aspiring novelist and has started writing several books of his own. An engaging conversationalist, Alex is always excited to talk about the things he’s interested in and hear other people’s thoughts and opinions. Alex is very thoughtful and appreciates respectful communication and emotional intelligence.

When he’s not nose deep in a book, Alex enjoys learning about technology and loves to take things apart to learn how they work and then try to put them back together. He also enjoys video games and would love to have someone to go head to head with on Mario Kart! Alex really connects with the people in his life and wants to share quality time together. Sharing meals is one of Alex's favorite ways to connect, and he's happy to help out in the kitchen too. He loves trying new foods from around the world, especially spicy things!

Alex's love for books is actually just one layer of his passion for storytelling. He dreams about turning the stories he writes into movies one day and has a lot of ideas about what those movies will look like. From directing, to acting to producing the music score for them, Alex's creativity is second to none. For his In-Depth Profile, Alex wanted to share about one movie script he's been working on that he's particularly excited about.

Alex is doing really well in school, and especially loves history class. He tends to score above average in most subjects when he puts his mind to it. A family that will support his educational achievements, celebrate his thirst for knowledge and help him continue to excel in academics would be great for him.

Alex is excited and optimistic about finding the perfect adoptive family and would do great in any family configuration. He has said that he would love to have another teenage boy in the house to connect with and buddy around with, but would also do well with older or younger children as he is very patient and understanding. Alex has a close connection with his biological brother, and it will be important for an adoptive family to be willing to support and continue that relationship.

If you can see Alex in your family, reach out! We are excited to find the adoptive family Alex can connect and grow with.
