The question that I am asked regularly is—Why Miss America?? 👑
Easy! The Miss America Organization has offered and continues to offer young women, like me, incredible opportunities for educational advancement and volunteerism. MAO and Miss North Carolina Org. have provided me with a larger and more visible platform to support and highlight financially challenged young performers, just like me, with my social impact initiative, Carolina Cares.
With the help of MAO and the Miss North Carolina Org., I am on track to not only become the first college graduate in my family, but to do so DEBT FREE. Thank you Miss America & Miss North Carolina for providing a gateway of priceless opportunities for young women across the nation!
Miss America is more than a crown and sash. She is a young woman, like me, who dares to dream big no matter the cost.
