My favorite day of the season… Miss Mid-South BBQ Festival! 👑

As many of you know, last year I took on leading with pageant with Alysha to support our middle school cheer program, that I was once part of. This year was our second year and we already have plans to amp it up for 2027! I’m so excited for our 8 new queens to represent at the festival, Christmas parade, and wherever their hearts take them!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who volunteered their time to make this day run! It takes a village, and we couldn’t do it without you! I love getting to be on this side of the pageant world and reminding girls that they are already winners by stepping on stage 🍂🤍

October is Domestic Violence Awareness month and this month holds a personal meaning for me because I am a survivor. My journey is one I never imagined I would experience, but it became a chapter of my life that changed me forever. I know what it feels like to be afraid to go home, to question your worth, and to wonder if you’ll ever make it out. For the longest time, the pain and memories were something I was ashamed of but I learned it is a testament to my strength, my courage, and the life I chose to rebuild.

I share my experience because someone else may be silently living through what I once endured. I want them to know they are not alone. Abuse is not love, no one should have to live in fear or believe they have to stay because they feel like they have nowhere else to go. Leaving may not be easy and healing doesn’t happen overnight, but there is always a light on the other side.

Today, I choose to use my voice for those who haven’t found theirs yet. I want to help others recognize the warning signs, know their worth, find their courage, and understand that their story does not end with the abuse. Survivors are not defined by what happened to them, we are defined by the strength it took to stand up, heal, and keep moving forward. If sharing my story can give even one person the courage to seek help, to believe they deserve better, or to know that tomorrow can be different, then every part of my journey has a purpose. I stand strong because love shouldn’t hurt!

Life Update ✨

I’m going to be real, it’s been a little chaotic since internationals… as soon as I returned to TN, I was in Nashville for my last college cheer camp- which brought me into August! The last three weeks have been lots of working, babysitting, and a little bit of baking, to prepare me for my final full year of college!

Yesterday, I moved into my dorm for the last time 😆 I couldn’t help but give my @iumtnal crown and sash the spotlight as a reminder of how far I’ve come, and where I’m still going 🩵

Fun fact… that cute name plate on the wall was part of my farewell gift from NUM Volunteer State. So, this room is full of little things that remind me of my pageant family 👑

Determination is what turns dreams into reality, even when the journey takes longer than expected. For me, it took three years of hard work, growth, and never giving up to finally earn the Maury County Fair title. There were moments of doubt and challenges along the way, but I kept pushing forward, knowing how much this dream meant to me. Being crowned made it all worth it, especially having my amazing pageant friend Caydence by my side to share that moment. It was more than just a win—it was proof that with patience, passion, and determination, anything you work for can truly come true.

I have so much to celebrate.

I was honored to receive the STEmerson Pink Coat Award 🥼🧪🎀, and my heart is absolutely glowing. This recognition means more than words can hold because STEM has never been just a subject to me, it’s been the foundation of my curiosity, my confidence, and my calling.

Thank you, Emerson, for selecting me as this year’s STEmerson recipient. Your belief in my work and my voice means everything. As a rising college freshman, I will definitely take this accomplishment to heart 🌸

Swipe for Part Two ➡️➡️➡️

I started as a STEM student during my freshman year of highschool. And now I'm entering my freshman year of college as an entrepreneur. This is proof that innovation can shape every step of your journey. It definitely shaped mine, even through the times where I gave up and got right back on my feet to continue working toward my goals.

Through SpeakLife, I’ve made it my mission to advocate for girls in STEM to remind them that their ideas matter, their voices are heard, and their stories are treasured and remembered in every lab, boardroom, and/or classroom. SpeakLife has allowed me to turn passion into impact, using my voice to open doors for girls who deserve to see themselves in STEM.

I’ll always be someone who can talk for hours about science, creativity, and possibility because STEM didn’t just change my life, it gave me a purpose worth sharing. My mission statement? "Let's SpeakLife Into the Future, Together ♡."

This is a calling. This is YOUR daily reminder to lift up others with your presence, voice, stories, innovations, and accomplishments. Use yourself to guide others to true leadership, determination, and discipline. I'm only 18, and I can only be 18 once, so why now? I'll save that for a different post...

Hey, it's not much. I still competed. I still cheered for those I competed with. Am I proud of how I performed? Not 100%. Am I willing to prepare better and become even stronger? Absolutely.
