Competing as Miss Catholic University in 2022 marked the beginning of my journey within the Miss America Organization. During my first year, I stepped outside of my comfort zone, discovered confidence in myself, and began learning the importance of leadership, service, and advocacy through pageantry. This experience introduced me to the impact a title can have within a community and sparked my passion for using my voice to make a difference. Returning to compete as Miss Catholic University in 2023 allowed me to continue growing both personally and professionally while becoming more involved in advocacy and campus involvement. Through this experience, I strengthened my communication skills, developed greater confidence, and further discovered how pageantry could be used as a platform for meaningful service and connection.
