From One Stage to the Next

Thank You

​

This journey has taken some unexpected turns. I went from pouring everything I had into one pageant system… to realizing I wasn’t done yet. When I said, “I think I want to keep going,” no one in my family even blinked.

​

Alex...my rock, my steady, my “you’ve got this” in human form, you didn’t just support this next chapter, you powered it. You hold it all down so I can rise, and I’ve never once had to question whether you were in my corner. You always are.

My kids, Bridger, Camden, William, Michael, Olivia, Shaiann, KyLee, and Ainsley just smiled and said, “Go for it, Mom.” No hesitation. Just love.

​

Now, I’m proud to step forward as Mrs. Pacific Coast, preparing for the Continental Worldwide stage with a full heart and even bigger purpose.

​

I didn’t push hard for sponsors this time around. I didn’t make a big ask, but my people, you still showed up with encouragement, with quiet support and with belief that lifted me more than you know.

​

This video is just a small way to say thank you. I carry your love with me every step of the way.

​

With all my heart,
