Myles is truly a superhero every day, having faced and overcome so many challenges.

Myles has always been a big fan of Black Panther! He loves the courage, strength, and amazing abilities, especially how he transforms from an ordinary person into someone capable of incredible acts of kindness. That’s why Black Panther is Myles’s favorite superhero. Plus, he’s a huge fan of Chadwick Boseman, who played Black Panther.
Myles’ love for superheroes started way back in his childhood, when he spent hours playing with his action figures with his father. Sadly, his father passed away when Myles was just six. They’d dive into adventures with Ninja Turtles, Spider-Man, and all his favorite DC and Marvel characters. Now, Myles has a whole room filled with superhero posters and complex action figures.
If Myles could choose any superpower, he’d soar straight for the ability to amplify voices—his own and others’. Why? Because Myles knows what it feels like to struggle to be heard. After conquering his speech delay with grit, heart, and relentless determination, he understands the power of communication and confidence. With this superpower, he could help people everywhere break through barriers, tell their stories, and share their truths without fear. Just like in his own life,
