Where do you see yourself in the next 10 years?

In 10 years I hope to have completed my university education. I will be on my way to becoming a veterinarian while still pushing my platform, which stresses the importance of education to our young people.

What do you hope to gain by entering this pageant?

This pageant will help in shaping me into a young lady with a purpose. I hope it improves my public speaking and communication skills while developing my self-confidence, so I can overcome my shyness.
Role Model: Sandra Roberts [mother], because she has always been there for me.

What do you think are the major problems that affect teenagers today and how would you solve them?

Currently, our island has a serious crime issue and these criminal acts are mostly being committed by young people. Education is the proven vaccine against violence. Educated minds are not idle minds and once our teens are employed constructively in empowering their minds, there will be absolutely no time left to engage in criminal activities.
