NAM Nationals 2011

I want to thank everyone for their well wishes and support! Nationals was an Amazing experience. More than I ever dreamed it could be. I had the time of my life. Although I did not place in the top all the memories I made are what matters. I won the award for most ticket sales...my fan club follows me wherever I go! I love everything about this system. The staff is so nice and helpful and the productions are one of the best I have ever seen. The week was full of rehearsals and fun events. Had so much fun at the 70's Party, Day at Disney, Hollywood Tour, Thanksgiving Banquet, all the themed rehearsals, and most of all experiencing it all with my family and new bff Caitlyn Capre and her family. It was such a blessing to get to know and bond with them all. It made the experience even better! Would not have been the same without them. I am so excited for states this summer and hope I can qualify to go to Nationals again...Daddy, start getting ready...lol!

Some of the pictures of my week...Enjoy!

East Coast Starz Take 2

Hi everyone! I had a blast this past weekend at East Coast Starz Take 2 in White Plains, NY. Mall Madness was a lot of fun, especially running around the mall with Gianna and Leah! I was in the 10 year old group and had to accessorize my runway outfit with the color brown. I competed in runway, interview, and live photogenic which was my favorite. Hope I can compete again in Take 3 in May =) I also had a photo shoot with Nathan Yungerberg, one of my favorite photographers. I LOVE all of my new pics!

American Coed 2011

I competed at the American Coed Pageant in July. This was the second time I did American Coed and as always had a great time. I was so happy to see and spend time with old friends, especially Gianna, and making new friends. I had a great time at the pink party dancing with my friends! I was in the Sweetheart Division and won most photogenic and placed 3rd runner up overall!
