As a mom who has a child with a dissability I have struggled with depression and anxiety. Through my platform I emphasis to other mothers who are going through the same the importance of mental health and doing things which can relax them and help ease with stress. I also grew up in a home where my grandfather had commited suicide and my mother struggled with mental illness her whole life. This heavily affected my childhood and I love working with other families to prevent their children to grow up in such situations. It is difficult but with the correct support we can all rise together and help each other during dark times.

Still She Rose is a wellness program for leaders, women and teens in the pageant industry. Funded by the B4ACUSA Foundation, wellness program initiatives are open to all pageant community members.
The ROSE is symbolic of the spirit that grows within each of us when proper care and attention is applied.
Together, we can encourage wellness through self care, positive body image, renewed self esteem and affirmation of one's identity beyond pageantry. We aim to engage in a conversation of support, honesty, reflection and awareness, in order to promote wellness as the foundation of the pageant industry.
Because each of us can say, She Struggled; and Still She Rose.
