Meet Kathryn Kueppers

How do you pronounce Kueppers? Simple! It rhymes with ZIPPERS.

Kathryn is a Presidential List graduate of Saint Paul College with an  AAS in Culinary Arts, and is currently a Dean's List student at Minnesota State University - Mankato pursing her degree in Family and Consumer Science Education (FACS). She hopes to work in the area of food education and literacy, teaching important life skills to our youth.

​A jazz lover at heart, not only does Kathryn sing jazz but Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, and Ella Fitzgerald are at the top of her play list. She performs with a jazz group called Ella's Cats, and when not with the Cats, she can be seen performing with her awesome jazz pianist, Phineas Pope. Kathryn also presents a kids cooking segment on Children's Hospital Star Studio called "Snack Attack with Kathryn" with the Dude.

In June of 2019, Kathryn won the title of Miss Minnesota. She was a double preliminary winner capturing both the talent and the evening wear/social impact statement awards. She has been awarded over $30,000 in educational scholarships from since she began her involvement with the Miss Minnesota Scholarship program. ​

Due to the cancellation of the 2020 Miss America Competition as well as all of the State competitions, Kathryn, along is remaining for an additional year of service until the Miss Minnesota State Competition in June of 2021.
​

During Kathryn's time of service she has built and advocated for her Social Impact Initiative, The Invisible Crown. The Invisible Crown comprehensive online resource provides an informative and positive message about the Miss America Organization and the legacy of Miss America, which is its unique sisterhood. Kathryn advocates not to only women of competition age, but to men and women of all ages, as they are crucial to the success of this organization. She does this by speaking to civic organizations to encourage their participation in helping young women in this program succeed through educational and community service opportunities they can provide.

Kathryn's work has been especially important, as Miss America is nearing its milestone 100th anniversary next year. Kathryn is excellent at marketing and has become a significant content creator as she has worked  to provide relevant information and education about the Miss America Organization. Many young women who hope to compete in the Miss America program look to Kathryn for her informative videos, blogs, and the content she provides.

In addition to Kathryn's duties as Miss Minnesota, she raises donations for Children's Miracle Network by selling her own line of hand crafted earrings. With her social impact initiative, she has created a line of 'Invisible Crown Candle Votives' which she also sells to raise money for Children's Miracle Network.
