Paige Nikodem is currently a student at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities in Minneapolis, where she proudly serves as a Feature Twirler. A dedicated baton twirler since the age of two, Paige has brought her passion and skill to her university’s stage while also excelling academically. She is set to graduate in May with a Bachelor’s degree and aspires to become a lawyer.
Since the age of 16, Paige has been involved in the Miss America Opportunity, where she has earned valuable scholarships supporting her academic and career goals. Paige is honored to serve the Twin Cities as Miss Twin Cities 2025, having been selected to represent the organization after its 13-year hiatus. Through this opportunity, she has deepened her commitment to service, personal growth, and community involvement. Her community service initiative, "Healing Hands: Creating Community for Cancer Patients," honors her late grandfather, who passed away from cancer. With a focus on resources, kindness, and community, her initiative partners with the Ronald McDonald House (Upper Midwest) and the University of Minnesota Masonic Cancer Center to support those affected by cancer. In her free time, Paige enjoys spending time with family and friends, traveling, and playing with her three dogs, Annie, Bella, and Daisy. |
