An accomplished dancer, Lynzi performed a jazz dance at the 2025 Miss Pennsylvania’s Teen Competition to the “Color Purple’s,” Miss Celie’s Pants.

She also a published author of “Just Be You” a book focused on empowering young people to embrace their individuality with confidence.  She also founded Tiaras & Twirls and created “Your Voice, Your Power”: A Public Speaking Workshop, Ambassador for Girls Inc.,

Just Be You is not just a tagline, it’s a call to action. Just Be You is focused on empowering youth to embrace their individuality with confidence. Through school visits, public speaking workshops, and my published children’s book, Lynzi encourage kids to celebrate what makes them unique and to lead with authenticity. Just Be You reminds every young person that their differences are their superpowers—and that being yourself is always enough!

In September, Lynzi will take her advocacy to a national stage when she represents Pennsylvania in the Miss America’s Teen Competition in Orlando.
