Qin - Bright Futures 2021

Parent Quote

The evening we met Qin, she was placed into her father's arms with a huge smile, holding a cookie. She has smiled ever since. The entire experience was the most anxious and exciting time of our lives.

From the Graduate

Adoption gave me the gift to find myself authentically. I grew up with a tension between a Chinese culture I knew nothing about and an American one that I couldn't quite seem to fit into. Eventually I realized that I wasn't fully one or the other, but rather my own combination of the two. I embraced the gift that my parents gave me by pursuing all that I could. The result? A cowboy boot wearing, Kia Soul driving, paneer loving, sports photographer who hopes to open her own daycare someday.
