As an undergraduate at Emory University, she ran varsity track and played varsity volleyball. Sporting safety gear, she’s han dled anthrax while working at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And competing in the Miss USA competition in Los Angeles, where the pageant’s new winner will be crowned April 12, is another path she’s pioneering. Puleo, who left for California on Saturday, is a first-year student in UNC’s School of Dentistry. In October, she was crowned Miss North Carolina USA, a title that allows her to compete for the Miss USA crown. Though she competed in a few pageants when she was young, Puleo said she was a little bit shy auppsrrsoa ixuvch Monday to Friday 11am - 4:30 pm Saturday & Sunday 11am - 4pm Adult 05.49 Children (ages 6-9) 03.25 Children (ages 3-5) 02.00 DUIKER Monday to Friday 4:30 pm -10 pm Saturday & Sunday 4pm -10 pm With Crablegs Adult 011.99 Children (ages 6-9) 06.99 Children (ages 3-5) 03.99 Without Crablegs Adult 07.99 Children (ages 6-9) 04.55 Children (ages 3-5) 03.00 Carry out by the pound.

But she’s come a long way from the girl who once froze when a judge asked her what her favorite television show was. Puleo said pageants have helped her build confidence, a skill she needs to carry out the responsibil ities of Miss North Carolina USA. Her father, Joel Puleo, also attrib uted his daughter’s heightened confidence to the competitions, which he described as great oppor tunities for young women to pro mote themselves. “It’s no surprise to me that (the Miss North Carolina USA) judges saw what I saw 25 years ago,” he said.
