Hi everybody! I'm Katie, a 26year old bubbly, big hearted dreamer from Marinette, Wisconsin. I believe life is meant to be lived with excitement and adventure, and I'm genuinely excited about life like fresh, squeaky cheese curds! 🧀✨
I'm proudly from Marinette, Wisconsin & I have some BIG news...I'm about to go on the adventure of a lifetime!
I am beyond grateful & honored to have been crowned Miss Amazing Miss 2026, representing my home state. I'll be representing incredible young women in the Miss division (24-27) empowering girls and women with disabilities & showing the world just how amazing we truly are
I am so excited 🥳for this journey
I love coffee, hiking outdoors, bike riding, arts & crafts, writing poetry, & exploring new places. I'm always chasing the stars & looking for the next adventure waiting around the corner. I'm also proud to be a Special Olympics athlete, leader, & health messenger. Sports & advocacy have helped shape me into the confident girl I am today
Now get your fishing pole ready because this is where there's a little casting involved! Lol I live with autism, intellectual disabilities, dyslexia, global learing disabilities & auditory processing disorder. There might be a few more in there...but I think my hook fell off my fishing pole, so we'll stop there for now
While my journey hasn't always been easy, it has made me stronger, more compassionate, & more determined to chase my dreams. I may be moody sometimes (who isn't) but I am always hopeful, always growing, & always believing that something amazing is ahead
My mom is a true superhero, a single parent & a fierce fibromyalgia warrior. She inspires me every single day with her strength & resilience
We simply can't afford the full cost of attending Nationals without support. Your donation will help cover: travel expenses, lodging, food, tickets & fees and misc needs.
When you donate or sponsor me, I'll add your name or your business's name to my denim jacket. I'm creating this jacket to honor every single person who supports me on this journey. That way as I make my way to Rosemont, Illinois I'll be carrying all of my sponsors with me a constant reminder what I'm not doing this alone. Your support truly means the world to me
Thank you for being here & taking the time to get to know me. Your support means more than you know
