Dear Future ConTESTANT

Over the years, I have had the privilege of working alongside countless remarkable young women, and one question is asked of me time and again: what defines an American Queen or Miss Teen American Queen winner? The answer, in its purest form, is ambition. Ambition—the drive to set goals, pursue them with determination, and rise to the challenge—is what sets these young women apart. When paired with qualities such as confidence, grace, intellect, courage, and beauty, ambition becomes the hallmark of every true American Queen and Miss Teen American Queen.

At Crowning Achievements LLC., we are honored each year to welcome and guide young women who embody this spirit. Our program serves as a platform for growth, recognition, and leadership—an opportunity to not only showcase talent and potential but also to inspire others. We take great pride in providing an environment where tomorrow’s leaders can shine, and we invite you to step into this experience that celebrates excellence, purpose, and possibility.

Now more than ever, the world needs individuals willing to stand for their communities, their states, and their nation. You hold the power to create meaningful change by offering your time, your talents, and your voice. What greater way to begin than by representing your state with honor as an ambassador for the American Queen legacy?

I warmly encourage you to take this step, apply, and embrace the excitement of our upcoming Miss American Queen and Miss Teen American Queen, Ms. , Mrs. , and Classic state pageants. Let this be the moment you turn ambition into action. The journey of a lifetime begins here—and it can begin with you.
