Alexandria will be competing for the title of Miss Illinois USA 2018 on Labor Day weekend!
How many pageants have you previously competed in? (Please include which system and your placement)
I have only competed in 1 other pageant which was last year for Miss Illinois USA 2017. Unfortunately, I did not place.
What made you decide to compete in Miss Illinois USA 2018?
I decided to compete in Miss Illinois USA 2018 because I was not prepared last year. And as a female that has struggled with body image and weight, I would love to be an advocate for other women to show them how to care for themselves. As well as it is important to let women know it is okay to have a different look and body type than what is seen in the magazines.
Outside of competing in pageants, what do you like to do for fun?
Read comic books, yoga, comic book conventions, video games, weight lifting, running
Give a brief bio about yourself. Include where you are attending school (include year and major if applicable), your future goals, etc. (Feel free to include however much or little as you like in this section)
I graduated from the a University of Saint Francis with a degree in Business and Health Administration. I plan to own my own personal training business, as I sit for my certification in the fall of this year.
If you win your state title, what do you hope to accomplish throughout your reign?
Speak to individuals about the importance of caring for themselves and make them understand how unique they are. As well as be an advocate for breast cancer awareness and prevention, as my mother just beat breast cancer this spring.
What is your dream job (besides being Miss USA, of course!)?
I would love to either be an MMA fighter or Actress so that I could portray a character in a Marvel movie.
