Ms. Great Lakes Modern Woman AmeriFest

This past Sunday, I had the opportunity to share the stage with someone who is not only my dance sister, but my pageant sister too! 💜✨
She came out to support me at my show and even stepped in to flag for us—not once, but TWICE! 🥹💕
Moments like this are exactly why I love AmeriFest. It’s so much more than pageants—it creates genuine friendships, beautiful bonds, and a family that continues to show up for one another long after we leave the pageant stage.
So thankful for my sister and for a system that has brought such special people into my life. 👑💜✨

On August 22nd, I had the opportunity to host Open Enrollment for a brand-new tutoring program that I’ll be launching this school year through my nonprofit, Coles Shining Starz!

I’m so excited and grateful to be able to pour into the next generation of bright learners and provide them with additional support, encouragement, and resources to help them succeed. This is more than just tutoring—it’s another way for Coles Shining Starz to continue making a difference in the lives of children and helping every child recognize just how bright their future can be.
I can’t wait to see what this school year brings!

If your in Berlin, Ohio you need to go visit The Cracklin’ Pig. They have everything pork related, ice cream, popcorn, and my all time favorite freeze-dried candy.

Tonight, I had the opportunity to attend a card-making event in Berlin, Ohio. While I was there, I met new people and had the chance to choose someone to make a card for. It was a fun and meaningful experience.
