SOULS- Special Olympics Unified Livestock Show

I am incredibly honored to have been asked to speak at Jefferson County’s SOULS (Special Olympics Unified Livestock Show) this year.
This event holds such a special place in our community, not just because of the amazing participants, but because of the heart behind it. The SOULS show was started last year by Mimi Ault, our Jefferson County Fair Princess, who was inspired by her sister one of the incredible individuals who proudly shows in this event. What began as a beautiful idea to promote inclusion and opportunity in the show ring has grown into something truly inspiring.
To witness the joy, passion, and confidence of every exhibitor is something I’ll never forget. It’s a reminder of what the fair and life is really all about: lifting each other up, celebrating differences, and coming together as one community.
Thank you again for allowing me to be a small part of such a powerful and moving event. The SOULS show is more than just livestock, it’s heart, unity, and soul. 🐄❤️

Well, back to the grind! 💪✨
Since Miss Ohio, I've been diving deep into PA school... and let me tell you, it's been intense in the best way. Summer semester is wrapping up in just a couple weeks, but this past one might have been my favorite yet!
We got hands on in lab, working with an amazing patient to practice breath sounds and vitals. 🫁🩺 I also learned how to perform phlebotomy, IVs, and ABGs and we officially signed off last Friday! ✅
Need someone to diagnose a cardio or pulmonary condition? I got you. 💓 Need someone to take your blood? Yep, I got you there too! 💉😉
One more semester of classes, and then clinicals start in January. So excited for what’s ahead! 🥰

Why should you join the Miss Ohio Scholarship Program?

Simply put: the people.
The women on that stage, the staff behind the scenes, the local directors who pour their hearts into this program, the cheering crowds, my friends, my family, my town, they are the reason. The Miss Ohio organization is filled with people who are driven, accomplished, kind, powerful, selfless, supportive, and absolutely inspiring in every way.
I will never forget the moment I placed in the Top 10, but what meant even more than that was seeing the joy on my sisters' faces. Their reactions, their hugs, their happy tears… that is what Miss Ohio is about. Also, when my bestie girl Bryn. I was absolutely over the moon when I heard you name.. AND right after mine! Performing in the top 10 right next to you could not have been more of a dream come true! That kind of love and support isn’t performative, it’s real. It’s the heart of this organization.
And I want to take a moment to highlight someone incredibly special: Kylie Gottman.
Kylie, you reminded me to keep going when I wanted to quit. You saw something in me that I couldn't see myself, and your belief in me changed everything. You've become such a constant in my life, a friend I will treasure forever. I’m so grateful you were placed in my heart so intentionally, it’s a bond I’ll never take for granted. 💛
To anyone considering joining this sisterhood: do it. Not just for the stage, the scholarships, or the glitz, but for the people. Because they will change your life like they did mine.

👑Miss Ohio Week 2025👑

This Miss Ohio week was nothing short of a dream come true.✨ From the moment I arrived to the coronation party, I felt nothing but joy, pride, and deep gratitude. The growth I’ve experienced over the past year: emotionally, socially, and within myself has been truly life-changing. 💫
I’ve made lifelong friendships, created unforgettable memories, and had the time of my LIFE on that stage. I’m beyond thankful for my incredible support system: my community, my local directors, my family, friends, coaches, and every single person who poured into me along this journey. ❤️
I’m honored to have received the Women in STEM Scholarship, the Terri Mitchell Memorial Scholarship, the Americanism Essay Scholarship, and the Semifinalist Scholarship—and to have placed Top 10 at Miss Ohio!! 🎉👑
This week was a celebration of hard work, passion, and purpose. And while the crown is beautiful, the growth, love, and memories are what I’ll cherish forever. 💖

Twas the night before Interview💤

Twas the night before interview, calm in the house,
Not a doubt in my mind, not even a mouse.
My outfit was prepped with precision and flair,
With pride for Ohio in each thread I wear.
The questions may come, both gentle and tough,
But I’m ready to show that I’ve got the right stuff.
Authentic, determined, and true to my core, This Buckeye is ready to open the door.
So here’s to tomorrow, I’ll shine and stand tall,
For my reason, my mission, I’m giving my all.
