Hello everyone! I’m Linden, and I am so excited to serve as your Miss Owatonna’s Teen 2026. I am a student at Owatonna High School, where I am involved in DECA and Thriving Minds. I am also a member of the OHS swim team and the OHS Girls Lacrosse team.

In my free time, I love surfing and skiing, listening to music, and spending as much time as possible with my family and friends. These moments have helped shape who I am and have inspired my passion for helping others.

My Community Service Initiative is Save the Wave: Life Jacket Safety. I was inspired by my love of being on the water and realizing how fortunate I was to learn water safety at a young age. I want to help share that knowledge with others. Through Save the Wave I plan to partner with local businesses, community members, and my family to make real, lasting change. My goal is to help build a future where no child has to question if they are safe on the water. By “saving the wave,” I hope to ensure that everyone in the Land of 10,000 Lakes is not only represented, but heard — through a title wave of love and compassion.

As Miss Owatonna’s Teen, my goal is to bring awareness to life jacket safety while leading as a role model for everyone I meet — spreading kindness and making every moment count.
