Platform Objectives: Building leadership skills through volunteerism is an issue dear to my heart. My main objective is implementing my platform is to lead by example in our community, state and nation. By sharing my experiences with young people, and the benefits that I have received by volunteering, I believe that I can continue the cycle of educating our youth to participate in some type of volunteer activity. The greatest benefit of participating in volunteerism or mentoring is that when these skills are combined with a quality classroom education, it results in adults who are great leaders, great parents, and upstanding members of the community.

Involvement: Red Cross volunteer, Students in youth in Government; Astra Club; Interest Club; Youth Volunteer Corp; Habitat for Humanity

Marketing Plan: My plan is to make appearances and presentations in schools to encourage young people to start volunteering in whatever way they would most enjoy. During these presentations I would explain to them that the Miss America's Outstanding Teen Organization is just one type of volunteer effort that has resulted in great things and exactly what benefits I have received from my participation in the organization.

Legacy: At the end of my year of service as Miss Louisiana 's Outstanding Teen, I know that I will have convinced many young people across the country to volunteer in one way or another. I will also have the peace of mind that I have contributed to developing the community leaders of the future.
