My journey began on October 8, 2011 when I was given the job as Mrs. Virginia International 2012. What a journey it has been. The many opportunities which have allowed me to speak about my platform Take a Stand B.R.A.V.E. (Be yourself, Resist the bullying, Achieve your best, Value your future, Encourage others) along with being the national spokesperson for SAVE (Students Against Violence Everywhere). I have seen a difference among our youth and schools after I visit. I hear how they have started programs against bullying/cyber bullying, mentor programs, and or bullying task force. I truly see that my family and our efforts are making a difference in the lives of our youth and that is the destination for my journey.
“Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life, but define yourself.”

National Bullying prevention banner contest - Sherando high school
I was asked to come and judge ALL the great ideas from the students that participated in this contest.
There were so many great ones that we as judges decided to combine some of them.
This is the finished project. Which I'm proud to
say is displayed in the commons area for ALL the students to see.
I truly believe we can make a difference on Bullying/Cyber Bullying. Especially with students such as Sherando Warriors who have proven they want to make a difference.
