How did you get started in pageants?
My first pageant was the Montgomery County Junior Miss Pageant my senior year of high school. I initially wanted to be involved because several of my friends were participating and I ended up actually enjoying it. So from there, I continued in pageantry through college.
Why did you choose children’s health as your platform?
I chose to champion children’s health and fighting childhood obesity because I’ve had a personal battle with weight and I think it is so important for children to get outside and be active. Hopefully, with the national title of Miss Black USA I will be able to continue my “Losing to win” platform and reach more children nationwide.
How can your fans help you bring home the title?
People can support Team Texas by voting in the Miss Black USA’s People Choice competition.
