Interesting facts: I absolutely love fashion. “Fashion is the most powerful art there is. It is movement, design and architecture all in one. It shows the world who we are and who we’d like to be”- Blair Waldorf.  I love sewing and designing my own clothes. I love flying kites, feeding ducks, and to  paint. I love to dance: I have been dancing since I was 12 years old and mostly love ballet. I love Nature. Camping, boating, hiking, backpacking, you name it I’m up for it! I also love spending my time with children. I have three nephews and they make me happier than anything in the world.  
Employment: Sales associate at Forever 21
Marketing Plan:  If I do become Miss Utah Outstanding Teen I will make the pageant known. I would do this by going to local jr. high schools, and high schools so that girls throughout our community have an opportunity to compete and gain the wonderful experience and confidence I have gained from this pageant. I would strive to become a good role model to young girls. Many girls today have role models on television and movies that are not always to best people to look up to. I would like to change girl’s opinions on the kind of person they want to become. I will set the example by having good standards and always doing what is right. I would also love to help out the cause of my platform. I would like to start a support group for people who are adopted and mothers who have gave their child up, considering it, or who have adopted. I also would do everything I can to serve everyone in my community.
Legacy: Awareness of the pageant and promoting my platform—Hope for Widows.
Why I should be Miss Davis County this year: I should be Miss Davis County because I think it would be a great and fun experience for me. It would help build more self confidence in myself. I also feel I would be a good example to girls all over and I would be the best role model I could for girls everywhere. I would love to represent our county and I love giving service to others. I would do everything to my best ability to make our community a better place for everyone. Being Miss Davis County would be a great honor for me.

Title: Miss Davis County
Promoting Adoption
Adoption is an act of charity, an act of faith, and an act of love. God loves all of his children. He loves children that are poor, disabled, children of every race, and he wants every one of them to be happy. Every child deserves a loving family and a suitable home and environment to grow up in. Adoption is a great way to give every child that opportunity. It also is a wonderful way to give to those who are unable to have children of their own. Every child would be so grateful to be put into an amazing home. I know because I am adopted myself. My birthmother knew she didn’t have the means to provide for me, and she loved me so much. She loved me enough to find a loving family to take me in and provide for me. I am so grateful for her love and for the sacrifice she made for me. I would love to use my title to be a voice for children all around the world and for family’s who would do anything to have these children and provide knowledge to the public about the option of adoption and to share my own story with them. Being adopted is the biggest blessing in my life.
So many women today who are pregnant and decided they do not want a baby choose abortion. They choose this for various reasons: whether it is because they cannot provide for it, or don’t want it. “Adoption is when a baby is grown in the mommy’s heart not her tummy” So many families would love to have a child but cannot physically have a baby of their own. If I win I will make adoption better known to pregnant women the choice they can make to give their children to a caring family.
The Miss America Organization could help out this cause by letting more U.S. citizens know about it, they could help raise money for adoption organizations, and they could also encourage young single mothers to consider adoption to give their child the gift of a wonderful life.
  I am so very passionate about this cause because it is my life. If I become Miss Davis County, I will start a support group for people: either children or adults, who are or have adopted.  I would also love to include young mothers who are considering adoption or already gave her baby up for adoption. I will go around to schools for pregnant girls and tell them my story and show them how grateful I am for what my birthmother did for me, what a wonderful life I received thanks to her. I am eternally grateful to her for everything I have.
