When asked what it means for her to be Miss Richmond, Laura replied that she would love to be a role model for the youth of the community; she feels that younger kids today have a lot of pressure to grow up to fast. She would like to show them that there are other ways to feel accepted and that morals are an important part of who we are as people. She wants to make an active effort in collaboration with other organizations in the community, such as the AUD, to get kids involved in proactive events and also in their community.
