In Her Own Words
" Growing up in a small town in Iowa, I never would have imagined that I would get to host a charity fashion show, be part of a telethon, visit children in the hospital, attend events as a celebrity guest, meet so many amazing people, or make a huge difference. I have been so lucky, and I look forward to meeting so many more amazing people and make an even bigger difference as my journey to Miss Teen USA continues. "
