As a first-time local titleholder, I am honored to represent Carolina Foothills and thrilled to be competing at Miss North Carolina’s Teen in June. My passion for the performing arts has shaped both my goals and my dedication to service. I plan to pursue advanced training by attending the University of North Carolina School of the Arts Performing Arts Public Conservatory High School Vocal Program in Winston-Salem for my junior and senior years, with the ultimate dream of one day performing on Broadway.
Living with more than twenty food and environmental allergies has inspired my mission to create safer, more inclusive spaces for children and teens. Through my CSI, Let’s Stop Dancing Around Allergies, I work to expand community outreach, build partnerships with organizations like FOODiversity, and encourage improved allergy awareness in schools, restaurants, and youth programs. My goal is to help ensure that students of all backgrounds, including those with food allergies and those facing food insecurity, have access to safe and nutritious meals.
I am a proud Encore Team dancer with Neighborhood Dance and have performed in productions including School of Rock at Children’s Theatre of Charlotte. I continue to train at the Children’s Theatre of Charlotte Acting Conservatory and study private voice with my opera coach as I prepare for the UNCSA High School Vocal Program.
Outside of performing, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. As Miss Carolina Foothills’ Teen, I also love traveling to events with my sister queens, and I’m excited to share this incredible journey with them as we head to Miss North Carolina’s Teen in June.
