It has been a Fun Filled Year for Our Miss Florida Princess for Division 1 !

This year has been so much fun. I still can't forget the night I was crowned Princess Queen for Florida, I was so happy! I worked hard and believed in myself and I won. My mom told me that as Queen I had to be a good role model and give back to the community, so I did. I started by collecting school supplies for the Overtown Youth Center for kids like me that needed supplies to do good in school. I also volunteered a few times with a foundation I really like, the Joshua's Heart Foundation. This foundation was created by a kid who wants to stop hunger in South Florida. I helped give out flyers to the community, and I also helped raise money. I even helped by preparing bags of groceries and handing them to homeless people in Downtown Miami. Another time I helped pack food that would go around the world to feed kids who had no homes and little food with Feed My Starving Children. I learned a lot about kids all over the world and really enjoyed helping them. I even helped the environment! I planted trees in a historic mansion in Miami Springs with Treemendous. This was fun too because I really like gardening. My mom and I also walked together at the 2013 Walk Now for Autism Speaks to help people who have Autism like my friend Jaydan. Right now I am even collecting money for the Make A Wish Foundation to make a kid's wish come true. I really like volunteering and helping people and I learned to do this with National American Miss. I love being a Queen because it is so much fun and I get to learn a lot and meet new people. I had the chance to meet Tomas Regalado who is the mayor of Miami. I also met the commissioner of Miami, Wilfredo Gort. He gave me a certificate of appreciation for all the good things I have done for the community. I was so happy! I really enjoy doing good things and being a positive role model. With National American Miss I even had the chance to go to California for Nationals, that was amazing. California is beautiful and I loved Disneyland. I made so many friends that I will never forget! I am so glad to be part of the National American Miss family and I know you will too. I want to wish all the girls good luck and that you should always believe in yourselves and have fun! You will learn a lot and make many new friends. Remember we are special and we are all princesses!
