About
After doing four years in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program at Valley High School, and graduating with both an advanced honors and IB diploma, I enrolled at the University of Nevada, Reno. I originally wanted to study criminal justice and work as a police officer on the ground; however, my first introductory to criminal justice class showed me my true dream is to work as a criminal defense attorney.

- Outside the classroom
I grew up hunting with my father. I have taken four trophy bucks along with an antelope. Besides hunting and camping, I have fallen in love with pageantry. For the last two years I have competed in the state pageant through National American Miss. In November of 2014 I was lucky enough to compete on the National stage in California, as Miss Las Vegas Teen. When I'm not in camouflage or a formal gown; I enjoy hanging out with kids. I have been a nanny for two separate families along with babysitting on a regular basis for twenty-two families. For the last six years, I have also volunteered in the two year old daycare at my church. There is something about the simplicity of childhood that makes it so stress free and playful.
