Miss Strafford County

Even though I'm a bit late with creating this, I have been leading a pretty exciting and busy two weeks! Recently, I found myself in the middle of a Miss America local pageant surrounded by some very talented, smart and genuine young women. How did I get there? Fate. I entered the scholarship program with no real expectations other than to have an experience. And that I did! In my first pageant back, and first local, I was named the Interview Winner and Second Runner Up. The program is incredible and the contacts I've made thus far are some of the nicest people I've ever come in contact with!

Here are some photos from the day! I can't wait to compete next and continue on this crazy and unexpected journey! What's life with out a little adventure right?

Welcome to my blog!

It's amazing to me how the world today is full of places for people to express themselves, their views and interests through just about anything. This is my attempt to become more in tune with this trend. In my first few months as a college graduate, I'm learning about who I am as a person and my aspirations for the future. Though many of you reading this probably know me personally and what I'm doing, I wanted to provide a guide for myself to remind myself how exciting life really is.

I love to share conversations, dreams and experiences with others. This is my chance to lay them on the line for anyone who cares to listen.
