Hi there, thanks for stopping by! Fill out the form below to tell us a little more about you. So we can point you to the correct State Director!
Emissary Pageants International Congress
Where Unshakeable Confidence, Sisterhood, Service, and Leadership come together!
Did you know EPIC routinely turns down sponsors? Sponsors that present themselves unprofessionally are turned away. We want the best for our girls and that means EPIC goes to the extra length to interview and get to know potential sponsors. It’s one of the reasons why we have so few sponsors. It’s a judicial decision to remain different because of the care we put into every part of our program.
✨ Big Announcement! ✨
I’m beyond excited to share that @elevationpconsulting is officially part of the EPIC family for YEAR 3! 🎉
We are incredibly proud to welcome this outstanding team as a 2026 EPIC Nationals Sponsor! Their support means so much to our program and our titleholders.
This year, they’ve generously added a $300 CASH sponsorship to EACH of our Volunteer of the Year prize packages — making an already meaningful award even more impactful. 💙
Even more exciting… Elevation Pageant & Interview Consulting is the FIRST coaching team to become officially EPIC Certified! 👑
When we say we bring the best of the best to our Nationals experience, we truly mean it. If you’re looking for expert guidance, encouragement, and next-level preparation, be sure to check out their coaching services.
We are proud to partner with coaches who believe in empowering contestants and helping them shine on the EPIC stage. 🌟

MeetKimberly, Elite Arizona Emissary
Kimberly is a proud grandmother to two beautiful granddaughters who live in San Diego. She has been happily married to her best friend for 15 months, and together they enjoy taking long motorcycle rides—often while raising funds for their favorite charity, the Permobil Foundation.
🏍️ Platform & Community Service | Defeat is NOT My Destiny
Her platform, “Defeat is NOT My Destiny,” is centered on inspiring and motivating others to live with a resilient mindset. This year, she is taking on an incredible 14-day, 10,000-mile motorcycle challenge to raise funds for the Permobil Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that individuals—regardless of disability—can pursue their dreams without limits.
She strongly believes that everyone deserves equal opportunities and that independent mobility is a basic human right.
✨ Why EPIC?
She believes programs like EPIC give women and young ladies the opportunity to build leadership skills while connecting with like-minded individuals from across the United States. Every participant brings something unique—not only to their fellow competitors, but also to the communities they serve.

Most competitors think winning happens during the interview.
But judges actually start deciding the moment you step on stage.
Before your introduction.
Before your platform.
Before you say a single word.
It happens when you walk.
Your posture tells a story.
Your pace shows confidence.
Your presence tells the judges if you believe you belong there.
And the truth is…
The difference between placing and winning is often just a few small adjustments in how you move across the stage.
Tonight we’re breaking that down.
👠 How to walk with confidence
👠 How to command the stage instantly
👠 The biggest runway mistakes competitors make
👠 The small details that make judges remember you
Because runway isn’t just walking.
It’s presence.
It’s power.
It’s the moment you show the judges you’re ready for the crown.
Join us tonight for EPIC Pageant Training focused on The Winning Walk for Pageants.
📅 March 9
⏰ 7 PM Central
If you’re serious about competing, this is one class you don’t want to miss.
Your most confident walk starts tonight.
Drop a 👑 if we’ll see you there.

Meet Bella, Preteen Miss United States Emissary
She proudly cheers for her school in Dragon Spirit, with one of her favorite highlights being that her brother plays on the football team. Dancing has been part of her life since age four, with a special love for lyrical dance. A Barbizon graduate signed with Sasha Models, her modeling career has taken her to Kansas City Fashion Week and her first advertisement with the Oriental Trading Company Magazine. She also shines as a Runway Diva on Roblox Dress to Impress, creating YouTube content with nearly 200,000 views.
Beyond the runway, she loves reading, excels academically with numerous school awards, is an avid K-pop fan, and cares for an axolotl, while dreaming of one day owning a fennec fox. Her future plans include joining the police force, earning a degree in forensic science, and becoming a bloodstain pattern analyst, while continuing to model and maintain strong academics.
🐝 Platform & Community Service | Bella’s Beez-Kneez: Bee-yond Beauty, Bee-yond the Hive
Her platform creates natural skincare products using farm-raised beeswax and honey, with her homemade chapstick being a favorite. All proceeds support bee conservation, with over $200 donated so far, while also educating others on the vital role bees play in our ecosystem.
She remains deeply involved in her community through PTSA, clean-ups, awareness walks, animal shelter donations, school supply drives, and food pantry support—including donating hundreds of items and nine turkey dinners. She also shares uplifting messages with a nursing home and participates in Chalk-the-Walk, spreading positivity.
✨ Why EPIC?
She believes EPIC is an inclusive system rooted in sisterhood, empowerment, and service. Her motto, “Every queen has a bee in her crown,” reflects that growth comes with challenges—but EPIC values and supports every individual, crowned or not.

We cultivate legacy.
We empower girls and women to:
✨ Own their voice
✨ Build platforms that matter
✨ Develop leadership skills that last a lifetime

There’s a girl watching who doesn’t yet know how powerful she is.

Maybe that girl is your daughter.
Maybe that girl is waiting for a sign.
This is your sign.
Your legacy isn’t someday.
It’s waiting at EPIC.

✨ Titleholder Tuesday Spotlight ✨
Meet Rebecca, Mrs. Florida Emissary — affectionately nicknamed the “Pink Swiss Army Knife.” 💖🛠️
Engineer. Wife of 21 years. Mom to 12-year-old triplet girls. Business owner. Strength trainer. Opera singer. Fashion lover. Tool enthusiast. Certified craftaholic.
Her life is powered by purpose… and a healthy amount of caffeine. ☕
Rebecca’s impact is just as multi-dimensional as she is:
💗 Pink Tools and Pearls (@pinktoolsandpearls)
Serving as the “big sister” for women in engineering, Rebecca shares hard-earned wisdom from her 25-year career. With only 4% of long-term engineers in the U.S. being women, she’s on a mission to change those numbers — and the culture.
🎙️ The Athena Factor (@athenafactorpodcast)
A bold new podcast (coming soon to YouTube) amplifying the real, unfiltered voices of women in STEM. Because the system should change for women — not the other way around.
✨ STEM and Sparkles Experience (@stem_and_sparkles)
Empowering girls to see that engineering and femininity are not opposites — they’re powerful together. From chocolate factories to robotics to saving polar bears, STEM is for everyone.
Rebecca believes in big dreams — growing her consulting firm, publishing her sci-fi novel, and maybe even earning a Nobel Prize, proving the divine through science. 🌟
And what does she say about EPIC?
Looking for a real pageant experience without the front office politics or backstage drama — EPIC is where you belong. Every woman shines here. EPIC was founded to allow women of all ages, all abilities, all body types, and all experience levels to shine bright on a national stage. Built upon the pillars of sisterhood, service, leadership, and unshakeable confidence, EPIC believes in recognizing the unique successes of every participant. EPIC welcomes all Queens, whether veteran titleholders or pageant newbies, to showcase their community impact initiatives and shine on a national (soon to be international) stage.
