Kohana is a busy teen who loves makeup, volleyball, and her friends. She’s looking for an adoptive family that will enjoy the small things in life with her and help her achieve her dreams.

A high school student, Kohana has big plans for her future. She hopes to become a doctor and use her kind, positive personality to help others in need. A family that will provide one-on-one attention and positive reinforcement can help her realize this.

Kohana is a self-described picky eater and would rather skip school lunch than eat something she doesn’t find appetizing. She says her favorite treats are Slurpees and cookies and cream ice cream.

Kohana has a close bond with her younger brother and would like to continue that relationship post-adoption. She would do best with both a mother and father figure in her forever home.
