Meet Michael, a bright and independent 17-year-old who’s always ready to jump into action and learn something new.

Michael is active, curious, and thrives when he’s hands-on—whether he’s outside riding his bike, exploring nature, or learning about the inner workings of cars. He has a strong interest in auto mechanics and enjoys discovering how things function, making him a natural problem-solver with a love for practical skills.

He also enjoys outdoor adventures like hunting and fishing, and feels most at ease when he's surrounded by open skies and fresh air.

Michael is looking for a strong, supportive role model—someone who can spend quality time with him, guide him with patience, and encourage his growth. He would thrive in a family that offers both structure and flexibility, and a calm, understanding presence to help him continue to build confidence and connection.
