鈥淢aking the top 15 was the most exciting part of this whole process so far.I was on the phone with one of my best friends and everyone was watching the timer tick down all together so it was a really special moment to feel so much support from everyone.

鈥淚 couldn鈥檛 even imagine how it would feel to make it farther so I鈥檓 just enjoying the ride along the way. It鈥檚 just fun to be a part of and also I鈥檝e been loving talking to so many people that I hadn鈥檛 spoke to in years and years. It鈥檚 helped me reconnect with so many people and I love that so much,鈥 she continued.
Willson got her first tattoo at the age of 14, and says that it鈥檚 always been a way for her to express herself.
鈥淚t鈥檚 crazy to have my creative outlet appreciated by people because my tattoos have always just been for me and pretty much my way of expressing myself without having to use words,鈥 she said.
