My favorite word is strength. If you don’t use it, you will lose it. You have to be strong in what you stand for, because if you don’t, you will fall for anything. The hard things will come in life. If you never learn to push yourself with your mental and physical strength, you will never get the real taste of life. That’s why you should stand firm in anything and everything you do.

What are your beauty secrets?

To me, there really is no “secret” to beauty. It’s a natural thing. God made every single human a beautiful creature. That’s why we are His creation. My outlook is to make yourself look as natural as possible. The girls who work to make themselves look good are just hurting themselves, with the fake eyelashes or 2-inch thick makeup on their faces. If you just stick to what you got, your golden J and that is what you want to shoot for.

What do you take most pride in? Why?

I take pride in my church, my family, and my faith. Church is where I find true friendships and find the most important friendship of all, God’s. I am proud of being a follower of Christ, and standing firm for what I believe in. I am proud of my family too. My parents, raising my two brothers and I on a solid foundation of Christianity, have given me strength and encouragement to be different when it comes to making decisions.

What is your favorite day of the week? Why?

Well, I think every teenager would have to say Friday on this one. But I like Wednesday! It’s the exact middle of the week! So I take everything that gets me down or something that I didn’t finish on Monday and Tuesday, and I challenge myself to change my attitude and way of thinking so I can have a great rest of the week!

Do you have a good luck charm? What is it?

No I don’t have one. But I do have my Bible!! It is definitely my whole map to get me through ANYTHING! I really don’t believe in luck. Everything happens for a good reason. And everything that happens, it is all God’s plan for each and every one of us. J
