I was born in Naples, Florida but have resided in Chittenden County since I was 18 months old. Growing up in Vermont has afforded me many opportunities for personal growth and development. Currently, I am a Sophomore at Essex High School where I am not only a student with a specific learing disability ADHD-combined type) but I am also an Honors student and a member of the Academy for Visual and Performing Arts on the Visual Arts Strand with a focus on Pottery & Fine Arts I am both a Varsity Cheerleader and an All-Star Cheerleader with Xtreme Cheer Altitude (formerly Xtreme Cheer AlStars VT). In the Summer of 2023, I participated in the Govemors Institute for Global Issues & Youth Action where I learned to hamess my advocacy skills to leverage change. I am honored to represent Chittenden County. As Miss Vermont Teen USA, I plan to use my platform to advocate for youth who are experiencing poverty, food insecurity, and homelessness in Vermont and across the United States.
