“In 2019, I competed in my first ever pageant- Miss Arkansas USA. I ended up getting 1st runner up with absolutely no experience because Lauren helped me realize my worth throughout the entire process I was able to compete with my fullest potential. Lauren was the most kind-hearted, welcoming, and encouraging person I had ever met.
She not only helped me in the process of preparing for a pageant but she also helped me grow as a person and with self-confidence. From walk, to hair and makeup, to interview she personally made sure that I was as comfortable as I could possibly be in every area. If you have all of the experience in the world or if this is your first-ever pageant, Lauren is the absolute best role model and mentor to have while preparing for your pageant.”
—Gracie Taylor, First Runner Up at Miss Arkansas USA 2020
Gracie came to me with no experience in pageantry with the dream of just placing top 15. Together, we crafted a brand persona that highlighted her strengths and unique values. In tandem with learning the basics, this extra element of strategy spotlighted her heart to the judges, resulting in her placement as first runner up in her first-ever pageant, Miss Arkansas USA.
