Pageant Coaching Bio by Melissa  
Growing up I was extremely shy and quiet. I stayed that way through elementary school, partly because I did not want to say or do something wrong that I could get picked on of for in social situations. I remember being made fun of for wearing brightly colored jackets and even for being too tall. I was called names by my peers that really made me think I wasn't pretty.  Peer bullying helped me validate the safety in my shyness. 
​

It took me a while to get over it and break out of my shell. I started taking dance classes and really began to enjoy who I was. I found great friendships through dance and an inner confidence that was there all along. By the time I graduated high school I had a soaring spirit having performed on two different competition dance teams and one cheer team. I had developed an outgoing personality from participating and assisting in leadership conferences and teen connection workshops. Such as the nationally recognized Challenge Day, where participants go through a series of humbling activities that break down barriers of separation, reduce the acceptance of teasing, while creating a network of support. 

I continued to learn personal growth techniques in college through on campus clubs and community groups. With this foundation I decided to test my confidence yet again by going into pageants. I felt like it was another level to prove to myself  how beautiful and intelligent I really am. The most valuable thing I have learned from my journey is to know who you are and be that no matter what. I think the pageant process helps you find out even more about yourself,  while pushing you  through your limitations and past your boundaries.  It is a great learning experience nor matter if you win or loose.

Now I am taking what I have learned through my experiences to help others achieve their dreams. Pageants are a perfect platform to let others know what your dreams are. Pageants are like a quinceanera, sweet 16 and debutant ball all rolled into one. In modern American culture we do not have the proper rights of passage for girls going from teen to young adult. I feel pageants can be a positive way to have that experience and let the world know who you are. But you first have to know yourself. I can help with that.
