People's Choice Award

1.If you could make one rule that everyone in the world had to follow, what would it be?
The funniest thing I believed as a child was that I could be Minnie Mouse. I loved Minnie Mouse and I wanted to be her. So, for every Halloween, I dressed up as her until I was seven years old. I had everything: Minnie Mouse clothes, toys and more! I thought I would be her, but sadly I couldn’t be.

2.If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
One talent I wish I could have, is being good at styling my hair. I am not good at doing my hair -- I can curl it, and that's about it. I wish I could braid it and do cool stuff to it without having to ask my mom to help me. Maybe being Miss Teen New Jersey International will help me get better at it!

3.When do you feel a child or teen becomes an adult?
Other than my family, my best friend Jenna is my biggest supporter. She tries to come to every pageant I’m in and she supports me with endless love. She watches videos of me in pageants and helps me pick my dresses. I am so lucky to have her love and support!

4.What do you feel you have learned in life that will be the most useful?
The best Halloween costume I have ever worn was in 6th grade. I went as a hippie with a few of my friends, and it was so fun. We looked so cool and got to wear a bunch of beads and clips in our hair.

5.What do you feel is the hardest job in the world and why?
A song that makes me 100% wanna dance is the song “Happy” by Pharrell Williams. It always puts me in a good mood, and even the song name is Happy. It can always make me happy and makes me want to dance every time I hear it!
