Harley Gowan - Miss Monroe USA 2023
We asked Harley a few questions about the upcoming Miss Louisiana USA pageant that she will be competing in.
How are you feeling about the pageant now all the contestants have been announced and it’s getting closer? After seeing everyone announced, it put so much motivation in me to work harder on prepping, so I can be my best self while competing against so many beautiful, talented, and intelligent women.
How has your prep been building up to Miss Louisiana USA? For months, I have been preparing for this pageant. I developed tremendously throughout the experience, pushing myself further than I ever before. It is not a simple task to juggle daily responsibilities with preparation for this opportunity, but by maintaining my determination and resilience, I know it will allow me to succeed in the end!
What are you most excited about? I am excited to build friendships with all my fellow competitors and create lifelong memories!
Are there any sponsors/partners you want to give a shoutout to? I want to express my gratitude to Warehouse No. 1 for not just providing financial support but also for being there for me during this journey. Without the advice and assistance of my pageant coach and previous competitors from this system, there is no way that I would be as prepared as I am right now. They have been so wonderful to me throughout this journey, and I am so blessed to have them in my corner. Lastly, without the help of my family and friends, I would not be the person I am today. They keep me rooted in the end goal and never allow me to forget that I am worthy of the crown!
