1. It has always been difficult for me to talk about myself. I don’t like to share my feelings, emotions, or let people know how I truly feel. My digital story will peel back many layers, revealing parts of my life that have ultimately lead to the person standing before you today. Starting with an embarrassing secret that I have been keeping from all of you... My Digital Story:

45. During this difficult time, I always felt like I was alone and that no one understood me. I had an inner struggle that made it hard for me accept myself, and I was beginning to get used to suppressing my feelings. I missed the sense of freedom.

64. I still continue to struggle to find out who I am I am two people. The person I am now, and the person I want to be. I have struggled all these years in hopes that one day the person I am, and the person I want to be will collide and we can finally meet. Its been years since I’ve been in a pageant, but deep down, I still really want world peace.
