Bio

Najee has a lot of goals for himself.

He wants to be a basketball player. He wants to be a rhythm and blues singer.

Mostly though he wants to be a businessman. The kind of guy who puts on a suit, and works in a big building with computers. And he wants to be the boss.

Comfortable and at ease with himself, it's not a stretch to think he can do just that.

Najee says he puts a priority on good hygiene. He likes to dress nice, which is evident in his sharp black, button-up shirt with colorful lines, neatly cuffed jeans and loafers. He models himself on his science teacher, whom he considers a role model.

He has been in foster care since he was about 3, and has since lived in 10 foster homes.

When Najee thinks about the future - when he's grown up working as a businessman - he can imagine just what it will look like.

He wants a pretty wife and a son and he wants to adopt a child.

"I want to take a kid who has had problems and take all the stress from his life. I'm going to treat him like a real parent," he said.
