This past Saturday, I retired a chapter as a first time title holder, and I did so with a heart full of gratitude. Serving as your 2025 Shapely Virginia Regency International Queen has been an honor that stretched me, refined me, and reminded me of the power of walking in purpose with intention and grace.
Throughout my reign, I committed to more than a title, I committed to impact. Through my platform, C.R.E.A.T.E., I had the privilege of hosting multiple virtual educational workshops and one in-person experience designed to inspire others to reconnect with their creativity and confidence. Each session was a reminder that our gifts are meant to be nurtured, shared, and celebrated.
Beyond the stage, I dedicated my time to service by volunteering across various organizations and communities, and proudly collecting over $500 in art school supplies to support Virginia students at Patrick Henry Elementary
@patrickhenryacps and Maryland students at Samuel P Massie Academy
@spma.pto . This journey has never been about recognition, but about expanding on what I value … and I wore my title with pride.
To everyone who supported, partnered, attended, donated, and believed in me, thank you so much. You helped bring this vision to life.
As I continue forward, I do so knowing that my reign may be ending, but my mission continues. Once a queen, always in service.
With grace, gratitude, and purpose,
Signing off, your Shapley Virginia Regency International for 2025
