Miss Teen Nebraska International®

What Superhero would you like to be and why?
I love the spring time when all the flowers are blooming and the weather gets warmer. Spring represents new life and it's a great time of year for new beginnings!

What according to you is a true friend?
I am very politically inclined. I love having debates with my dad about politics and discussing world issues. I think people need to know what is going on around them in the world.

How do you handle criticism?
My hometown is Crete, NE. It is a small community of loving people. Everyone truely cares about each other and their families. When someone in the town is having a hard time, the community comes together to help! I'm so glad I'm from a place where everyone helps each other.

When was the last time you tried something new?
My worst habit is that I procrastinate. I seem to put things off until the very last minute, but I always get it done. I've been working on this and I have been getting better at using my time, but I still have a ways to go!

Do you think crying is a sign of weakness or strength?
I want to travel to Italy. I love Italian culture and food! Italy has so much history and tradition and I would love to study the language. Italy is home to many famous artists and musicians and I want to learn more about their history.
