It is a dream for an individual to win a state beauty pageant, you were crowned Miss Maine 2023. Tell us more about this spectacular achievement of yours.
Juliana Morehouse:
For me, being a pageant titleholder is a great privilege. The pageant world is this network of elite women that I am proud to be a part of. Being Miss Maine USA is a goal I have been working towards since I was about 15 years old.
My mom was my initial inspiration for jumping into the pageant world because she was Miss North Carolina USA in 1994 and went on to place second runner up at Miss USA. Being Miss North Carolina USA transformed her life.
It launched her career in television news; it catapulted her into the National Speakers Association; and it provided her with a vast network of successful women. From an early age, I decided I wanted to have those same opportunities as my mom. I competed in my first pageant at age 16. I placed third runner up, and from then I was hooked. Not only was I mesmerized by the glamor of the pageant world, but I was intrigued by the significant personal growth that comes with preparing for the competition.
