Sophie Burzynski, an Auburn senior with a double major in nutrition science/pre-dental and business management, is the new Miss Alabama USA. Kensey Collins, who competed as Miss Spanish Fort Teen, wins the Miss Alabama Teen USA crown.
Burzynski, who’s originally from Louisville, Kentucky, says her ambition is to become a dentist. She also wants to “become an agent of transformative impact in empowering others,” according to her bio for the Miss Alabama USA pageant.
“I think there are so many topics I would love to discuss, but I think the main thing would be to start an experience class in all colleges across the United States,” Burzynski said. “I think this is something that is so important. Teach young adults how to write a check, how to open up a bank account, how to do their taxes. This is something that is so important that we need to address more.
