A little reflection before Miss Alabama week begins 🐆🤍

I already feel so grateful for everything this journey has given me: growth, purpose, friendships, memories, and the opportunity to represent the University of South Alabama doing what I love most. Thank you to everyone who has supported and believed in me along the way. Time to soak in every moment… Miss Alabama, LET’S DO THIS!

OFF TO MISS ALABAMA! ⭐️🐆

EEEK, the time is here! I’m Birmingham bound to compete for my dream job. I am honored to represent the best University, and I am so excited to share my story and my heart to change lives. Alabama, I’m ready for you!

A huge thank you to the best grandparents ever for everything you do. It truly takes a village, and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it weren’t for yall. LET’S DO THIS THING!

In one week, I will be competing in the TALENT portion of competition at Miss Alabama, and I CANNOT WAIT!

Baton twirling has shaped me into who I am today. From competing and earning state and national titles, to twirling for my high school, and now having the amazing honor of being a Feature Twirler for the University of South Alabama Jaguar Marching Band, this sport has given me the best experiences, life lessons, and friendships I will forever cherish and carry with me throughout life. I love sharing my love for twirling with those who don’t know much about the sport, and I’m so excited to twirl on the Miss Alabama stage!

I wanted to give a special shoutout to Karrissa Wimberly for choreographing my amazing talent routine for this year’s competition. Karrissa is an INTERNATIONAL baton twirling champion and has been such a HUGE part of my twirling journey. Shes been an inspiration for me since day 1, and I’ve been beyond lucky to have had many lessons and classes from her throughout the years. I’m so thankful for all of her support, guidance, and encouragement throughout the years. You’re the best, love you! 😽🫶

fun fact: the last video is from our VERY first lesson together in 2015🥹

MISS AL SOCIAL MEDIA CALENDAR - HIGHLIGHT A SISTER

One of the sweetest parts of the Miss Alabama Organization is the friendships that come from it, and my girl Reagan Hanson will always hold such a special place in my heart. Reagan was actually the very first friend I made in MAO. We met at my very first Teen prelim and from the beginning, she welcomed me with so much kindness and support. Her and I instantly became best friends and have stayed in constant contact just about everyday since that prelim. Over the years, I’ve been so grateful to grow alongside her through all of our different seasons of life!

Reagan is the kind of person who lights up every room she walks into. She is hardworking, uplifting, genuine, and one of the funniest people I have ever met. Whether it’s Miss Alabama related, life updates, or just everyday moments, she has always been in my corner, cheering me on and doing the same for others around her.

fun fact: we have the same major AND we are both Chi Omega’s!

Watching her grow through this organization and now through her year of service as Miss Leeds Area has been so special, and I’m incredibly grateful this organization brought such an amazing friend into my life. I can’t wait to make even more memories together during Miss Alabama week. Rea, thank you for being one of my best friends ever. From allllll the laughs, the inside jokes, the late nights when I crash at your house, (really appreciate that one🙏) and so much more, I am beyond blessed to have you in my life. ILYSM!
