1.How do your personal / unique qualities best fit the International Pageant System?

I am a woman who plays many roles in life: wife, mom, teacher, student, daughter, sister, dancer, and friend. I think this ability to multi-task makes me a perfect person to represent married woman who juggle both family and career.

2. What is something that few people know about you?

People probably would not guess that I was very shy as a child.  I had lots of ear infections which caused temporary hearing loss.  In elementary school, I was always the quiet girl in the class who listened very well.

3. What do you do to stay healthy?

One of my passions in life is dance.  I started ballet at the age of 3.  Currently, I teach at Miss Kristy’s school of dance; I love passing on my dance knowledge to a younger generation.  When I am not dancing, I find that long walks help to keep me both physically and mentally fit. 

4. Everyone talks about “Family Values”. What are they?

Family values include loyalty and trust.  I come from a big family who is always there for one another no matter what.  It is very comforting to know you always have a support system in place.  

5. What is your worst habit? Why?

My worst habit is my weakness for chocolate.  If I turn down chocolate, something must be very wrong in my world. No matter how healthy I eat, I have no willpower where chocolate is concerned.
