Tristan Lee is a talented model, actor, poet, and fashion designer. Tristan was diagnosed with Sickle Cell as a baby at six months old. School was always challenging for him as he was out sick from sickle cell most days. It was always a struggle for Tristan to keep up with the other kids both psychically and mentally, but through the grace of God he did and graduated on time.
Despite having had a stroke early in life, Tristan has pressed forward to accomplish great things, including an almost complete recovery through therapy, dedication, and hard work, and there are many more great things yet to come for him. He does a lot of charity work advocating for the South Central PA Sickle Cell Council of Harrisburg, PA helping them raise awareness for this cause.
