A science lover for life, in June 2019 Camille was selected as Miss Virginia after breaking from tradition to perform a highly engaging, entertaining and educational science demonstration, the “catalytic decomposition of hydrogen peroxide” for the onstage talent competition. Her unique performance put a laser focus on women in STEM and sparked an enormous positive reaction, leading to a personal protective equipment sponsorship and a new STEM scholarship from an American chemical company. Camille traveled throughout Virginia inspiring thousands of students and became a sought-after keynote speaker in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

A national and international viral sensation, her story reached millions through The Today Show, Talk Stoop, CNN, BBC, The Kelly Clarkson Show, CBS This Morning, Inside Edition, The Weather Channel, Southern Living, Canada’s CTV, Germany’s RTL, and many more.

The time has come in The Game of Life where a major change is upon us, and a SHIFT in perception is required. For some this shift has been happening for a while and changes have been taking place, for others it's going to be more like a bucket of cold water being thrown on them.

She gives gratitude for all of her experiences because it made her who she is, which gave her the courage to move forward and to help others do the same.

You are not alone; support is all around you. Most important that support is inside you. As Glenda, the good witch in the Wizard of Oz said to Dorothy "You always had the power, my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself."

Are you ready to unleash the power inside you?

Are you ready to become the hero you were born to be?

 

The time is now!

Let's play this Game and SHIFT to the next level together.
