Mrs. District of Columbia America 2025

 I was just 2 months after having Max that I decided to do a pageant. Maybe I was riding the wave of baby hormones or running on zero sleep, but somehow the non-pageant girl in me said yes to something completely new—and it changed everything. What started as a leap of faith quickly became something so much bigger when I saw how the crown could amplify my voice, especially for a cause so close to my heart. Being Mrs. Silver Spring was such an incredible honor, and from representing 2025’s best place to raise children, Silver Spring, to representing the nation’s capital, I was beyond humbled. I got to be a part of so many DC events—DC Fashion Week, a pediatric cancer gala, honoring our veterans, enjoying the ballpark cheering on our Nats, and so much more. It was a season of stepping into something unfamiliar and still feeling completely like myself—just a little louder, a little bolder, and with a whole lot more purpose.
