As you know my names Brianna Burdette! I was born, adopted, and raised here in Peoria, Illinois!  I grew up an active child playing almost every sport you could think of looking to find my physical passion and the one that stuck with me was dance. During my career of dance I was introduced to modeling in 2017 participating in my first fashion show a year later, and have been blossoming in that field ever since! I entered the Miss USA pageant at the end of this summer to give myself new opportunities and have the potential to change the world if chosen through my passion and philanthropy focusing on mental health. I currently live a nonstop life that I am so grateful for consisting of modeling, working at the local hospital, nannying, and caregiving. I am also in college for my BS in business and future PHD in Psychology. To receive your support not only means the world to me, but an amazing opportunity for Peoria, Illinois to be represented!
