Hometown - Asheville NC
Occupation - founder of an online magazine

I am humbly honored to represent the women of the great state of North Carolina. It is my goal for this coming year to empower women and encourage them to be strong, joyful and loving ladies. I am so excited to travel this great state to share my passion on CPR education.

My greatest honor and title is being a wife to my husband, Rhett, and a mother to my three children: Avery, Ethan and Ansley. I am blessed beyond words. I enjoy fitness, reading with my book club and going from place to place as the family chauffeur. As a family we enjoy sports, beach vacations, and good old fashion dance offs on Wii.

As I begin this journey my hope is to be a shining example and uphold my title with the utmost dignity. May my crown and my heart sparkle with love for each person I come in contact with during my reign. I am truly honored to be Mrs. North Carolina America 2011.
