With an adventurous spirit, this kiddo dreams of visiting California one day. The most unique thing about RJ is his love for vegetables! After a busy afternoon, his favorite foods to munch on are lima beans, carrots, and broccoli. If RJ had superpowers, he would be fine with whatever his powers would be as long as he got to wear a cape to save people. His favorite colors are red, black, and gold.
This charming seventh-grader enjoys attending PE and advanced choir class.
