I am so grateful to be your Miss Model City 2024! I am so blessed for everyone’s support and their kind words throughout my journey. I am so very thankful to promote my CSI: Back to Basics throughout my hometown and at Miss Tennessee. I ended up receiving a $500 scholarship from the Miss Tennessee pageant and also receiving a $500 scholarship from DAV, I am so grateful to have had an amazing experience up on that Miss Tennessee stage and made new life long friends. My next chapter of my journey will include going to University of the Cumberlands in the fall with a cheer, dance, and academic scholarship and also major in elementary education and join their dance team. I will forever cherish this moment in my heart. 💕
