RIM Ms. Arkansas 2018 - Internationals

As many of you know, I won the Royal International Miss - Ms. Arkansas 2018 title last November. I thought I would give you an update on how Royal International Miss Internationals went last week in Orlando, Florida.

I had a blast the entire week of the pageant. I met women from all over the United States as well as other countries. We had themed parties every night and even an awards dinner where all of the volunteer, community service, sides, and optional competition winners are announced.

Besides competing in the required competitions for Royal International Miss - Ms. 2018, I competed in several optional competitions as well as won some side awards. These include:

-2018 Casual Wear Model Winner

-2018 International Fitness Model Winner

-2018 Model Portfolio Winner

-2018 Community Service Winner

-2018 Photogenic 1RU

-2018 Purple Passion 1RU

In addition to those competitions, I was also voted Best Hair and competed in Top Model and State Wear.

By the end of the week, I was dead tired and running purely on adrenaline. Waking up at 5AM almost every day for hair and makeup and going until 11PM almost every night will get to you. But, it was worth every second of it. I think it was almost 11PM when we the Teen, Miss, and Ms. finale completed that Saturday night. I ended up making top 10 in the Ms. division and re-competed in on stage introduction and fun fashion. My final placement was 2nd runner-up. Congratulations to Hollie from United Kingdom on being named the 2018 Royal International Ms. I am so grateful for the opportunity to represent my state in an international pageant and even more grateful for all the friends I made from around the country and world.

I also want to thank my family for all their support the entire week. My husband traveled down to Florida with me and was there the whole week. My parents and sister were also there for me. Love you all!
