Check out this Fox 4 News clip of Danielle Stegall and read below from Danielle herself about her experience that starts TODAY!
Well, tomorrow is the big day! As I prepare to leave for New York tomorrow I’m taking time for last reflections of my experience up to this point. I have learned a great number of things during this whole experience. It has changed my entire outlook on and attitude towards life. I never knew how hard I could really work until I had to prepare for this competition. At times there were late days, late nights, and weekends but I have a sense it was all worth it and will all pay off in the future! I feel I have accomplished a huge goal in my life. Working with YE to prepare for the competition has been a positive experience though at times I had may ups and downs with Mr. Birmingham (two different personalities trying to work together…interesting) but I really appreciated him working with me and putting up with all of my baggage and pushing me to that next level. The process in working and learning how to prepare for the competition has been very hard but I am very proud of how much it has grown. I didn’t understand at first how much I really had to do until it got closer to the competition then everything started to seem so real. I am afraid of making mistakes while I present but with all the different rehearsals and presentations I feel I am prepared. I went home some days mentally exhausted and it still seemed like I wasn’t getting anywhere but I feel I am prepared to do my best. The competition is here! It’s time to put on a show and show the judges what I have to offer! Regardless of the outcome, I know I worked extremely hard and will do my best come Thursday. Wish me luck!
