Give us a little back of yourself 

-I’m a 26-year-old media correspondent, inspo digital content creator, and now Miss Louisiana United States 2018.

As Miss Louisiana U.S., my mission is to serve as an advocate and liaison to bridge the gap between mental illness professionals and the families and individuals who need their services.

By using my platform as Miss Louisiana, I’ll be able to promote mental health awareness, explore signs and symptoms of mental health conditions, and highlight how and where to find help by partnering with organizations whose mission aligns with this message.
