Shelby Redfield Kilgore is an adoptee from South Korea and has dedicated this channel to all things foster care and adoption. In between freelance work as a TV producer, Shelby's passion project is to spread awareness and education about foster care and adoption through the video lens. The best way to support her work is to subscribe to her channel, share about it with your friends, family and community, purchase the book she co-authored with another adoptee, Rooted in Adoption: A Collection of Adoptee Reflections at BookBaby or Amazon, along with merchandise at veronicashelby.redbubble.com and Etsy. Coming soon you'll be able to book a Rooted Conversation at rootedinadoption.com
