The Betsy Johnson and Cape Fear Valley hospitals have been so supportive of my pageant journey and community service! I thought I would treat these amazing staff members with some homemade cookies and brownies 💕🍪.
At The Ripple Project, our vision is to create a world where every individual—especially teens—feels empowered to take action, speak up, and spark change.
We believe that mental health matters, kindness spreads, and small efforts can lead to big impact.

We do what we can with what we have
This past Saturday, Jalyssa and her Sister Queens volunteered at the Chapel Hill Ronald Mcdonald house! These houses are completely free for families to stay in as their child receives medical care at the nearby hospital. As this is a nonprofit organization, they rely on volunteers and donations which is why we are so grateful that her and my sister queens were able to go out and support these families with treats!
This past weekend Jalyssa was invited out to the Pro Football Hall of Fame to speak at the first ever Miss HBCU Teen Ruby Pageant! She completely free-styled this speech. Confidence, kindness, and creating ripples 🌊 🌊- that's what it's all about!
