“Katie has made a huge impact in the way I look at pageants. She revealed to me not only strategies and helpful tips, but also the brute reality of competition and how to flourish while facing arduous challenges. From giving me helpful advice to assisting me with my wardrobe, Katie has been a helpful mentor in breaking me into this pageant. She is a person that wants nothing but to help others and empower women while giving unfiltered advice. She influenced me to pridefully take on my new role in the MAG 2019 court and to continue to share knowledge with others as she has with me.”

Her knack for building relationships, posturing herself to be at the right place at the right times, and tenacity for self improvement makes her one of my most fierce badass female friends.

Katie’s the testament of feminine strength and what it means to never stop working hard in chasing your dreams – she has taught me that!”
