The Road to United America

It's hard to believe that exactly two weeks from now, I will be preparing to board a plane to Texas for the Mrs. United America and Mrs. Petite United America pageants. Looking back over the past several months, I am overcome with emotion and a feeling of gratefulness unlike any other I have experienced. I am extremely grateful for all of the opportunities that I have been blessed with, and all of the wonderful friendships I have made. I am grateful for the ability to use my title to raise breast cancer awareness as well as raising awareness for other worthy causes. There are not enough words to describe how thankful I am to my amazing family who have made it possible for me to pursue my dream. Without them, this experience would not be possible. I am grateful to my friends for their unwavering support and words of encouragement. I am so lucky to have all of you by my side to share in this experience. Most of all, I thank God for blessing me with this opportunity. Through him, I have learned that all things are possible. From the bottom of my heart, thank you everyone for your support!
