Sean is 15 years old and he says he loves school:
(Sean:) "Because you're never too old to learn."
(Kane:) "And what do you like learning about the most?"
(Sean:) "Math and reading."
(Kane:) "How are your grades in school?"
(Sean:) "Good. A's and B's."
Sean says he wants to go college:
(Sean:) "I really wanted to be a vet, or I'll be a technician."
(Kane:) "You like engineering and technical things?"
(Sean:) "Yes."
(Kane:) "You're probably the kind of guy who could put something together very quickly with your eyes closed."
(Sean:) "Yeah."
(Kane:) "Yeah, I figured. I could never do that."
(Sean:) "I basically like to make and create things."
In addition to reading, Sean says he also loves to play sports:
(Sean:) "My favorite sport is soccer."
(Kane:) "You like to run back and forth like that?"
(Sean:) "Yeah. It's good exercise."
(Kane:) "I always got out of breath doing that. You keep your breath the whole time?"
(Sean:) "Yeah, I do. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it."
His family recruiter, Tamara Reddick, says Sean will admit that he isn't perfect, and he tries to learn from his mistakes:
"He has had problems in the past but he knows what those are and he works on it. He's just a lovable kid, and I have enjoyed working with him."
