In 2018, my high school went into lockdown due to a reported active shooter. In the end, it turned out to be a hoax. However, it was scary not knowing what to do if people had been injured. As a nursing student I learned about STOP THE BLEED® and became an associate instructor. Now I am a registered nurse and a STOP THE BLEED® Instructor. I am also Miss Western Mass Massachusetts 2024. The competition I won is an official Preliminary within the Miss America Organization. I will be competing for Miss Massachusetts. My community service initiative with this organization is STOP THE BLEED®.
I believe that my experiences, passion and my reach within the community, would make me an ideal ambassador
