When hatred is loud, we make kindness LOUDER.

Hi friend! I’m Sara- creator of LOUDER, proud Swiftie, dog mom to a goldendoodle named Millie-Mae, and a firm believer that kindness can change the world.

I’ve always been the kind of girl who cheers the loudest, writes thank-you notes on pink stationery, and stops mid-scroll to hype up strangers online. My heart beats for service, storytelling, and showing people they matter.

Pageantry gave me the confidence to lead, but my purpose was always bigger than a crown. Whether I’m volunteering with seniors or mentoring the next generation of titleholders, my mission is the same: to make sure no one ever feels invisible.

When I’m not traveling for appearances, designing with Crowned Creative Co., or filming “Sincerely, Sara,” you can probably find me with a Dreamfloat Alani in hand, dreaming up my next big idea.

The Why

When I won NAM Miss Alabama 2024, I thought it would be one of the happiest chapters of my life. But instead of celebration, my inbox filled with cruelty. Headlines questioned my worth. Strangers debated if someone who looked like me “deserved” a crown. I was called names, picked apart, and publicly humiliated by people who had never met me.

They said I wasn’t the “real” Miss Alabama.
They questioned the legitimacy of my win.
They made my body the punchline of their outrage.

But here’s what they didn’t understand- this title wasn’t just about me. It was about every girl who’s ever been made to feel too different, too loud, too much, or not enough.

So I got louder.

LOUDER was born from that pain- but built on something greater: leadership, opportunity, unity, determination, empathy, and resilience.
It's a platform for girls who want to show up with kindness when the world is loud with hate. It’s a reminder that you are not alone, your voice matters, and kindness can shake the room.

This isn’t just my story. It’s the beginning of all of ours.
