As Miss Maine for America Strong 2025, I’m so excited to be volunteering at this year’s Miles for Mills Memorial Day 5K, an event that supports post-9/11 veterans, service members, and their families through the Travis Mills Foundation. This incredible race, held each year around Memorial Day, honors our nation’s heroes while helping those who have sacrificed so much live full and active lives.

Running has always been close to my heart. From middle school track meets to college cross country courses, I’ve spent years lacing up my sneakers and pushing past limits. So being part of an event that blends that passion with purpose is deeply meaningful to me.
Whether you’re racing, walking, cheering, or volunteering … thank you for being part of this mission. And if you happen to spot me around the venue, please come say hi! I’d love to meet you, share stories, and thank you for supporting such an important cause.
