Q: Why do you want to be crowned Junior Miss Juneteenth America or Teen Miss Juneteenth America?
A: I want to be crowned Junior Miss Juneteenth America because it will be another accomplishment in my life that I can share with the ones that I love. I also want to be crowned because it will be a great opportunity for me and I can learn more about Juneteenth and how it has changed history. I also want to be a role model for future Junior Miss Juneteenth or Teen Miss Juneteenth America so that they can enjoy the experience.
Q: How would you serve as a role model as the crowned Junior Miss Juneteenth America or Teen Miss Juneteenth America?
A: I will serve as a role model as the crowned Junior miss Juneteenth America by presenting myself elegantly and showing my knowledge of Juneteenth and how to present yourself in public. I will serve ways on finding your way to God, how to be respectful to people, how to be patient and kind, and how to have faith. I will serve ways on how to be yourself and learning not having to change who you are for someone else to make you happy.
Q: What is the key to success?
A: The key to success is having a strong relationship with God so you won’t have to carry your problems on your own and so that you can learn how to be patient and find happiness. Being successful in my words is being able to make it to heaven by not just believing in God but actually building a relationship with him. The Bible is the truth which can lead you to many successful achievements in life.
Q: What is your proudest accomplishment?
A: My proudest accomplishment is finding God, starting my own business, and being talented in fine arts. Finding God is the best decision I made in life it’s leading me to so many different achievements such as my business and music. Starting my business has led me to make people happy because my clothing may remind them of something or they just simply really like it. Fine arts has led me to see what I can do and what I’m talented in which can lead me to a better future.
Q: What charity did you select and why?
A: The charity I selected was Worlds Ambition organization. I chose this charity because there are many people in need of shelter, food, and clothing and I want to help them out by choosing this charity so they can have a place to stay with food and clothes. I want to see people happy and be successful in life that way the world can be better and the people can be better to.
Q: How do you plan to use your scholarship?
A: I plan on using this scholarship to use on getting in college where I can be successful in the dance team at Alabama State University. If the dance team doesn’t work out I plan on using it for the marching band at Jackson state university or Alabama state university.
