In June of 2021, while holding the title of Miss Spartanburg, I placed first runner up in the Miss South Carolina Competition, winning over 13 thousand dollars in scholarship money to advance my higher educational goals. In addition to receiving the runner-up award, I was also awarded as a top fundraiser for the Miss America Organization and a Quality of Life finalist for 2020 and 2021. I received special recognition for being a COVID Hero during my time as a local titleholder. Was awarded two Gold Presidential Service Awards for completing over 500 hours of community service, and was a silver medal recipient of the Duke of Edinburgh International Award.
