Last night at the Lincoln Theatre on U Street, the dream of yet another young lady came true – she was crowned Miss District of Columbia and is on her way to Miss America! A packed audience waited with anticipation for the crowing moment of 21 year old American University student Jennifer Corey.
Jen, as her friends call her, took home the top prize as well as preliminary awards in swimsuit, talent (opera) and evening gown. Sophia Davis would win top honors in the Interview competition. Jen’s court consisted of 4th runner up Ashton Kunkle, 3rd runner up Sophia Davis, 2nd runner up Randi Levendusky and 1st runner up – and first time pageant competitor- Stephanie Williams.
With a platform on recycling entitled “Let’s Talk Trash!”, Jenn will begin preparations for Miss America immediately. Watch for Jen at appearances around town and find out more information about the Miss DC program here.

Of all the Opera performed during the pageant, Jennifer Cory stood out. We were torn about who we wanted to win until that moment. Thank you for highlighting more about her.
