Hi, there! We wanted to thank you for considering us as you make an adoption plan for your child. We know this isn’t an easy decision, but we also know it comes from your deep love for them. We hope to extend that love as adoptive parents.

We hope this website you a sense of who we are as people and as a couple. But above everything, we want you to know that everything we do is fueled by our sense of love: shared compassion for each other and for others.
Early in our relationship, we knew we wanted to grow our family through adoption. Our dream is to give our child every opportunity they need to have a joyful, fun, safe, and magical experience growing up. We want to help our child discover their passions and pursue their dreams — whatever they are — and we want to help them grow up with a sense of wonder, kindness and hope about the world. We know that everyone deserves that chance.

May this profile share a sense of who we are as people and the type of parents we will be together.

With gratitude and deep respect,
Charell and Stephen
