Lovely LaRose — fun, outgoing, and full of God’s glow. Born and raised in San Francisco, she carries the heart of a warrior, overcoming ulcerative colitis with faith, joy, and unstoppable strength. She creates music that heals, loves deeply, and coaches women out of darkness into their God-given purpose. A creative soul with a kingdom mission — reminding every woman she touches that she is chosen, called, and worthy. ✨💗

Passionate, resilient, and committed to making a difference, I am honored to serve as an ambassador for COGI. As Miss Stafford and a Miss Texas USA 2025 competitor, I use my platform to inspire confidence, advocate for resilience, and empower others to embrace their journeys—especially those navigating life with an ostomy.
With over 30 years in the modeling industry—including 9 years after surviving colorectal cancer—I strive to redefine beauty, strength, and self-love. Through this ambassador program, I hope to amplify awareness, spark meaningful conversations, and uplift a community of warriors who refuse to be defined by limitations.
Let’s create impact, break barriers, and celebrate every version of ourselves—together! 💙✨
