Welcome to my blog!
I'm still in awe with the fact that everything I worked for has paid off! I can't thank all of my supporters enough for believing in me and helping me to achieve this huge dream of mine! I'm so blessed to be able to represent my beautiful state this year. I can't believe that 2 months have almost already gone by, but i've been keeping busy and loving my crown and banner in the meantime... :)
Miss Amazing Pageant!
My first appearance as Miss Massachusetts Teen USA was judging the interview portion of the Miss Amazing Pageant, a pageant in connection with Best Buddies and for girls with disabilities to participate in. It was a big change being the one judging and not being a contestant! I had so much fun learning about the girls and being able to connect with each of them one on one. They were all so adorable and kept me smiling the entire time! I love that these girls were able to show their beauty both in interviews and on stage. I'm so grateful to have been a part of it!
Best Buddies Gala!
I had the opportunity to meet so many genuine people at the Best Buddies Gala in Boston! I was lucky enough to accompany Chris, a member of Best Buddies, who threw out Tom Brady autographed footballs to the crowd that were sold in order to raise money. I also met the sweetest and most outgoing girl ever, Sarah. Also a member of Best Buddies, Sarah helped introduce me to so many amazing people all throughout the night! The organization was able to raise a bunch of money to help people with disabilities find jobs, be successful, and more.

The Home For Little Wanderers!
I had a blast at this event that brought out my creativity and Christmas spirit! Held at Chestnut Hill, the event involved a bunch of teams competing against each other in a Gingerbread House contest. My team was awesome! We really worked together to create a house that I'd even live in ;) We received the "Best Use of Candy" award and I was even able to take our creation home!
Pictures, Pictures, Pictures!!!
I had my first official photo shoot as Miss Massachusetts Teen USA 2014 with Creative Sparks Imagery! The amazing photography duo captured some amazing shots! My hair and make-up sponsors dolled me up perfect! Also, my jewelry sponsor made me feel like a million bucks with pieces that went perfectly with my dresses. I couldn't ask for a better team!
