Director: Brittany Croy

Meet the Director

At 28 years old, I wear many hats—educator, cheer coach, pageant director—but the most treasured title I hold is “Mom” to my two beautiful children, Austin and Grayli. They are my heart and the reason behind everything I do.

My journey in pageantry began early, having competed in over 15 pageants from the age of 1 through 18. Those experiences helped shape the confident, empowered woman I am today and instilled in me a deep appreciation for the lifelong benefits pageantry offers. From poise and public speaking to friendships and personal growth, pageants were a defining part of my upbringing.

Now, as a pageant director, I am honored to help provide those same opportunities to others through this scholarship organization. I’m passionate about creating an environment where young people can grow, shine, and find their voice. Outside of the pageant world, you’ll find me on the golf course, shopping, or making memories with my babies.

I am endlessly grateful to the Lord for the many blessings in my life and for the chance to serve others through the incredible platform of pageantry.
