As the daughter of a CFO, Madelyn has always been business-minded. At West Chester University, she unlocked her full potential, serving as a 3X Executive Board member and university titleholder. A 2025 graduate with a B.S. in International Business and Supply Chain Management, she will begin her MBA using nearly $10,000 in scholarships earned through the Miss America Opportunity.

At 19 years old, she turned her anger into action and launched the Loosen the Leash Project because no animal deserves to feel fear. Now, her work is making waves as she has raised almost $100,000 for animal abuse prevention. With 501(c)3 approval and trademark status in the works, Madelyn is ready to end animal abuse in America!

 With 15 years of Irish dance experience and leadership, Madelyn reached the highest level of competition by age fourteen. She knows the entire show of Riverdance by heart and proudly led the WCU Irish Dance Team to their first Collegiate National Championships. Now, she’s excited to showcase the athleticism and artistry of Irish dance on the Miss Pennsylvania stage!

Madelyn’s Miss America journey began by surprise - and with a single question.  After being crowned Miss WCU 2023, a local journalist asked her, “Are you ready for Miss Pennsylvania?”

In February 2025, Madelyn was crowned Miss Central Pennsylvania and was honored with the Overall Interview Award, a deeply meaningful achievement for her as an avid public speaker.
