Her pageantry students either capture the title or place as a finalist at every pageant across the southeast, with titles including American

Forestry, Miss Thomasville (MAO), Miss Presidential Pathways (MAO), Miss Outstanding Teen Camelia (MAO) and the list goes on.
Her students are on the honor roll at their schools, participate in charity and community events, and are very well mannered. They are role
models and are learning to develop their God given gifts.
The students participate in four fashion layouts per year for The Valdosta Daily Times. They are also the only school/agency chosen to
model for a mall- wide fashion show at The Valdosta Colonial Mall. Each student has fun, is recognized for their achievements, and is
continuing to grow towards becoming successful adults in our communities.
Each December, there is a recital for the students to show their family and friends what they have accomplished at Amanda's Models and
Talent. This recital is held at Mathis City Auditorium and is free to both students and their families. Each student demonstrates one thing
learned and accomplished since being in training, as well as performs commercials, monologues, and modeling the runway.
Also, Amanda's Models and Talent show the students how to give back each year, by requiring each student to bring one unwrapped toy
to the recital. These toys are given to The Salvation Army and to Black Crow Media each year. Since 2002, over 400 toys have been
donated to the communities in South Georgia.
DREAM BIG!! It is NEVER too late to become what you might have been
