Miss Teen North Carolina International®

What Superhero would you like to be and why?
There are a lot of beautiful names including my own. If I could choose another name, I would choose Spencer! It is a name I have always loved and believe it is elegant and expressive.

What according to you is a true friend?
My favorite day of the week is Saturday. It is a day where our family attempts to avoid scheduled activities. I usually sleep in and then read, watch Netflix and enjoy the company of my family and friends.

How do you handle criticism?
My favorite movie as a child was Mary Kate and Ashley's Passport to Paris. I loved watching the twin antics in all their movies. With the Paris movie, I got to watch and dream about going to Paris myself. Luckily, that dream came true in 2011. Paris is still my favorite place in the world!

When was the last time you tried something new?
I have been blessed to play volleyball for 7 years. I am a competitive person and volleyball allows me to develop my skills while keeping me in shape. I have learned to work within a team towards a common goal, while being flexible and striving to win and lose with grace. As the Captain of my Varsity team, I have learned to lead by example while motivating a group of girls to work together.
