  "Being a Miss Deaf Utah created a new meaning of honor. I realized my actions are louder than what say.  "It helped me to become kinder and thoughtful of others. I looked outside of myself and I strived to comfort others. I learned to put others first and to become a representative for Utah Deaf community. It taught me the value of tactfulness and proper conduct. 

The experience was an eye-opener.  I was amazed to see other girls representing other states in MDAP. I didn't really realize how much this pageant meant nationally. I enjoyed it more because I was able to create good friendships even though we lived states apart. I felt honored to be chosen to represent Utah and felt proud that I did well in my title.
