Michigan Fashion Week❣️

What an exciting experience celebrating fashion, creativity, and the incredible talent within Michigan’s fashion industry. From backstage preparations to the runway, I loved being part of this year’s shows, connecting with fellow creatives, and showcasing the work of talented designers. An incredible opportunity to express style, celebrate individuality, and share my confidence both on and off the runway!

Fall Forum! 🍁✨

Thank you to the @missmichiganorg board, Brittney from @eskewconsulting, Grace and Maggie, and every volunteer and director for putting together such a wonderful and informative day! It was a great opportunity to build my skills, reunite with my sister queens, and celebrate this amazing program. 👑

A special shoutout goes to @deltabymarriottmuskegon, our Miss Michigan host hotel, for holding the event in your beautiful ballroom! It is always a joy to be back. 🥳

And a special thank you to everyone in the room that wished me a happy 20th birthday! There was no other place that I would have rather spent the day. I have so much love for my #MAO family! 💖

A Fall weekend full of sisterhood, inspiration, and a little Miss Michigan fashion history! 💙✨👑

From hearing Grace and Maggie Mae share their experiences, connecting with current and future local titleholders, and learning from Brittany Eskew I left feeling refreshed and excited for the journey ahead as Miss Spirit of the State!

One of the most special parts of the weekend? Wearing a suit my mom wore when she was Miss Michigan 32 years ago. 🥹 There’s something so meaningful about carrying a piece of her legacy with me as I pursue this dream of my own. Same stage, different generation, and a whole lot of Michigan pride!

A heartfelt thank you to our Executive Director Paula and the @missmichiganorg Board for bringing us together, @deltabymarriottmuskegon for hosting us, @eskewconsulting for sharing your expertise, and our wonderful Spirit/Saginaw team.

Grateful for the friendships, the lessons, and the reminder that this opportunity is about so much more than a crown. Here’s to continuing to grow, serve, and lead with purpose!! 💙

You had me at cannoli!🇮🇹🤌

As an Italian-American, getting to make my favorite dessert at Livonia Italian Bakery & Café was a dream! Lexi showed me how to put together their bestselling cannoli, complete with their delicious cream made fresh in-house. Safe to say I took this lesson very seriously! 🤍

Whether you supported them at Cannoli Festa or simply love a good cannoli and supporting local businesses, Livonia Italian Bakery & Café is the place to be! ❤️

35 years of serving Wayne County! 🇮🇹👑

What better way to celebrate 35 years of Livonia Italian Bakery & Café than with the 35th Miss Wayne County!

I had the opportunity to chat with owner Franco and get a behind-the-scenes tour of this beloved local business. From fresh-baked pastries and authentic Italian favorites to premade meals and so much more, there’s something for everyone!

I’m excited to share more from our collaboration! In the meantime, stop by, grab a cannoli, and support a business that’s been part of our community since 1991!❤️

Living life to the fullest🫶

A weekend in my life as @misswaynecountymi looked like volunteering with @ahamichigan, @missamericami Fall Forum, content collaborations, and @mifashionweek rehearsals. This opportunity continues to push me to say yes, show up, and build a life that feels fuller in every way!

Sometimes, the place where you find your strength starts as the place where you simply feel safe.

For @madison.nero , growing up in an abusive household meant finding moments of confidence wherever she could—including sitting at her vanity and looking in the mirror.

What started as a safe space eventually became something bigger: a place where she could dream.

After being placed in the custody of her aunt and uncle, Madison entered her first pageant—and for the first time, she began to believe that her future could be different.

Her story is a powerful reminder that your circumstances don’t have to define your future.

The adversity you overcome can become part of the story that helps someone else believe they can overcome, too.

🎧 Hear Madison’s full story and how she turned adversity into purpose in Episode 41 of Act to Impact.

The 2026 Ann Arbor-Jackson Heart Ball was definitely a night to remember! What a blessing it was to be part of such a special event! 🫀💃🏼

As someone with heart disease, the American Heart Association has changed my life. The work they are doing and the impact they are making means so much to me. It means that, individuals like myself who are affect by heart disease, are heard, valued, seen, and given a voice.

Thank you to the American Heart Association for all you do. You have no idea how much it means to see cardiovascular health at the forefront of conversations. Change is needed, and that change is being made by the AHA. I look forward to continue working with the Michigan American Heart Association so no one feels as scared or alone as I once did.
