What a ride this has been! I’ve grown in ways I never expected, and met some of the most genuine, hardworking, and inspiring individuals along the way.

I give all glory to God. Isaiah 40:31 reminds us, “But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” There were moments where I questioned myself, moments of exhaustion and uncertainty but God continuously reminded me that His timing is perfect and His plan is greater. 🙏🏾

To my friends, supporters and everyone who believed in me: Thank you for being part of this journey and always showing up for me. This isn’t just my win, it’s ours.

A special thank-you to @chanelle_creations your creativity brought my vision to life.

To my family, especially my Mom: Thank you for your unconditional love and belief in me. Your sacrifices and support have built the foundation I stand on today.

To my pageant moms and dads: Your guidance, patience, and love made this experience so special. Thank you for seeing potential in me.

To my pageant brothers, we did it! Every rehearsal, every laugh, every moment, I’ll never forget it. Iron sharpens iron, and y’all truly pushed me to be better.

To my new court brothers: Congratulations to each of you! I’m proud to stand beside such driven, talented, and passionate men as we represent this legacy together.

To the Real Beta Alpha Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., Thank you for trusting me to represent such a powerful legacy. It’s an honor to stand beside such remarkable women who embody sisterhood, scholarship, and service. I promise to uphold the values of your chapter and wear this title with pride.

And to my Miss Delta Sigma Theta, @demihoward_ : What an honor it is to serve beside you. From the start, your grace, passion, and leadership have inspired me. I’m proud to be your Mr. 1913, guess that just makes us the perfect 10/10 duo❤️

Signing in as your Mr. 1913 for the 2025–2026 Academic Year,
