- Why did you enter the pageant? I’ve always wanted to join a pageant ever since I was a toddler and watching princess cartoons and pageants. Growing up and having my cousin who was a pageant princess as one of my role models, showed me that dreams are real and they do come through. I’ve watched her entered many pageants and she would always tell me that there are many ways that you can reach out to other young ladies and this platform is one and a good one to assist in doing so. I then knew from there that pageant is the way I wanted to go. I want to be the voice for other females without one and also help them find that voice and this platform is a great way to do so.
- Which world leader inspire you? The world leader who inspires me the most is the well known, famous Oprah Winfrey. The reason for this is that I admire how much of a strong woman she is and even when life threw so many curve balls at her she still managed and constantly picked herself up and kept pushing, becoming a better, healthier version of herself and pursuing what she wanted to achieve.
