I want to send a big thank you to all of the area businesses that contributed to the Cinderella Scholarship fund to assist me as I represented Washington state as an international competitor in Dallas. My gratitude goes to Missions Media, Cups Espresso, Dr. Charles Brown, Power Punch Distributors, Kingston Crossing Chiropractic, Dominos Pizza, Jeff Hale, Reliable Polygraph Services, and to the family, friends and community members who have supported many fundraising efforts. Special thanks goes to the Sons of Norway for the commemorative Poulsbo pin and to the Poulsbo Athletic Club, which has graciously allowed me time off from my job to prepare for and participate in this event.

It is my privilege and honor to represent the great state of Washington and our town of Poulsbo. My appreciation to each one of you who helps to prove to young women that dreams really do come true.
