Trent's Story

Trent entered foster care at the age of four due to domestic violence, extreme neglect, and sexual abuse. After traveling a painful journey through the foster care system, Trent was adopted at the age of nine and came to dramatic levels of healing from his traumatic past. Trent, now 23 years old, has devoted his life to helping others find healing. Trent is a mentor and public speaker and has authored and published two books. Trent recently graduated from Arizona State University with a 4.0 GPA with a B.S. in Family and Human Development. Trent serves as CEO and Co-Founder of Watch Me Rise in Wake Forest, North Carolina. Trent is a trauma consultant and serves as a TBRI Practitioner, Life Coach, mentor, and parent trainer. However, his favorite part of his job is working one-on-one with children and youth to provide hope for healing. Trent gives all the glory to God for his healing and strives to be a light in the darkness.
