I’ve followed Miss Virginia Volunteer from the start and when I saw they added a Teen division, I knew it was for me! I love what this organization stands for, especially the “Five Points of the Crown” – Scholarships, Education, Responsibility, Volunteerism, and Empowerment. Each of these points comes together to spell S.E.R.V.E. which is what means the most to me! I have always had a heart for serving others, especially minorities and those who are from low-income homes, which is where my platform comes in – “Serving the Underserved” Bridging the Gap for Equal Opportunities.

Joining the Miss VA Volunteer organization has given me so many more opportunities to serve my community and I can’t wait to see all that will be accomplished during my year of service. I am also excited to be the first Miss Virginia Teen Volunteer to represent Virginia and compete at Miss Volunteer America Nationals!
