  • Total Focus Podcast E95 With Camille Schrier

    Guest Of The Week

    Camille Schrier grew up in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, eventually moving to Virginia to complete dual Bachelor of Science degrees in Biochemistry and Systems Biology with honors from Virginia Tech. She is currently pursuing a Doctor of Pharmacy at Virginia Commonwealth University.

    ​

    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.

    ​

    A certified Naloxone trainer and future Doctor of Pharmacy, Schrier utilizes her platform to advocate for promote her social impact initiative, Mind Your Meds: Drug Safety and Abuse Prevention from Pediatrics to Geriatrics, with a strong focus on combating the opioid epidemic.

    ​

    On December 19, 2019 competing live on NBC from the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut, Camille was named Miss America 2020 from among 51 candidates, distinguishing herself in the 100 year history of the organization as the only woman to win the job with the help of science as her talent. Also of historic significance, she is the only Miss America to ever face the challenge of serving her role through a pandemic and be fully grounded for an extended period.  Flexible, adaptable, creative and resilient, Camille travelled the country both physically and virtually, speaking about drug safety and abuse prevention, naloxone and the opioid epidemic, leadership, innovation, authenticity and Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, a genetic disorder that she was diagnosed with at age 11. She secured partnerships with the DEA & CDC, brought science to thousands of students, and further carved her legacy as the first Miss America to speak in the United Nations General Assembly. Facing the pandemic using her pioneering mindset, Camille created an at home video studio which became the base for projects like “Cooking up Science with Miss America” with PBS VPM, and the “Mind Your Meds with Miss America” webinar series with Advanced Recovery Systems. She served as a virtual commencement speaker for her alma mater Virginia Tech, delivered dozens of keynote speeches personally and virtually for STEM, pharmacy, and business conferences, and “zoomed” with key experts in the areas of opioids and STEM as well as directly into science classrooms across the country to connect with thousands of children. 

    ​

    An avid outdoorswoman with a passion for all living creatures, she loves fishing, hiking, and walking her canine companion. She considers herself a foodie with an innate hunger for “experimenting” in her own kitchen since she was a young girl, and a craving to never miss an opportunity to experience local cuisine wherever her travels may take her.

  • Total Focus Podcast E93 With Tiffany Ann

    Guest Of The Week

    Tiffany Ann

    Pageantry has been a part of Tiffany Rea's life for the past 14 years and it has played a huge role in her

    development as an individual. Her passion is to serve others. Because of her work in pageantry, she has

    served over 1,400 hours of community service and has developed her own platform that promotes volun-

    :Trism through mentorship. Tiffany has received local, state, and national awards for her service, includ-

    ing two Gold Status President's Volunteer Service awards.

    In addition to her service work, Tiffany is a full-time, online student with Liberty University and is work-

    ing towards her Bachelor's Degree in Criminal Justice - Crime Scene Investigation, with a minor in Psy-

    chology. Working in the Criminal Justice field has been a long-time dream of Tiffany's, as she hopes to

    work for the FBI one day. Her dream is to work in investigation and as a Victim Specialist. She has recently

    become an advocate for Human Trafficking and decided to become a volunteer with Operation Under-

    ground Railroad, which is an organization that fights to end modern day childhood slavery.

    When Tiffany is not working, studying, or competing in pageants she enjoys taking time to indulge in

    her favorite hobbies, such as cooking, baking, collecting vintage cookbooks, being outdoors, listening to

    crime podcasts and watching crime documentaries. She also enjoys going to Disneyland and playing with

    her rescued dog, Macie. Tiffany also comes from a large family where she is the youngest, and only girl,

    of five siblings.

    As Miss United States 2020, Tiffany plans on making the most of her year by volunteering in any way that

    she can. During the national pageant, Tiffany promised the judges that she would do the work through-

    out the year and work toward increasing volunteer and mentor participation.

    PERSONAL PLATFORM PROMISE:

    "Please sit back, close your eyes, and visualize your greatest passions.

    What if I told you that you could utilize whatever you just imagined, in giving hack?

    I am Tiffany Rea and after 14 years in pageantry I've discovered my mission in life is to serve others. My

    platform is Promoting Volunteerism through Mentorship, and through this 1 teach others to identify

    their strengths and passions and apply them to their service work. Currently in the United States, 9 mil-

    lion children grow up without a mentor, and about 30% of adults choose to volunteer through an orga-

    nization.

    As Miss United States, I promise to increase volunteer and mentor participation throughout our country

    with confidence, integrity, and passion. I will personify the Crowned Diamond model and represent the

    Miss United States organization as your sister, your spokesperson and mentor to anyone ready to get up,

    be courageous, and serve!"

  • Total Focus Podcast E90 With Brittany Nicole

    Guest Of The Week

    Brittany has been dancing for over 14 years and she’s trained in jazz, hip-hop, pom, and performance. During the day, Brittany is a Tech Arch Delivery Specialist for Accenture Federal Services, and at night she's venturing into creating makeup tutorial videos via Instagram and YouTube! She believes that feeling and looking good helps boost confidence in all facets of life.

    She just concluded her fifth NBA season as a Co-Captain, and retired with 5 years of dancing for the District, under her belt! Brittany has had the opportunity to travel to NYC for NBA All Star Weekend and to Rio, Brazil during the Olympics, to support her team. Additionally, Brittany's dance tenure included juggling dancing with the professional D.C. dance company, Capitol Movement, and dancing in concert with Jason Cerda. As well as being featured in two of Cerda’s music videos.

    Due to Brittany's professional dance journey, other prolific avenues have opened up to her in the areas of modeling, virtual dance parties, and teaching opportunities that cater to the needs of dancers looking to go PRO or to women looking to take their make-up skills to a PRO level!

    Her style is hard hitting, clean and consistently incorporates a fun groove to allow her students to connect with the music to make it their own! Brittany hopes to give back to the dance community in the same way the community has given to her through the years. She believes it's important to be a teacher, but it’s equally important to humble yourself to allow yourself to become a student as well!

    “Dance class will remain a two-way street catering to both the teacher and the student. Training, teaching, experiencing...has no end date! There will always be a teacher, a class, or a pocket that a dancer can/will find a connection to, that will push them to that next level! With that mindset at the forefront, growth as a dancer is insurmountable!” – Brittany

    During quarantine, Brittany has spent her free time studying for her Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud practitioner certification and Certified SAFe Practitioner certification.

    Stay connected with her via Instagram (@By_BrittanyNicole ) and YouTube (By_BrittanyNicole)!
