MISS IOWA USA 2017

26 | WEST DES MOINES | 1ST RUNNER-UP 2016, 2ND RUNNER-UP 2015

Kelsey Anne Weier was born just three minutes before her twin sister, Kayla. At the age of three, Kelsey and her family moved to Des Moines, Iowa where she was raised and currently resides. Growing up, Kelsey attended catholic school from the age of five where she learned many lessons about the importance of being a role model in the community and giving a voice to others.

While in high school, Kelsey experienced many successes both in serving her community and on the athletic field. The Silver Cord Award was bestowed upon Kelsey for the 400+ hours she spent bettering her community through various charitable acts including efforts focused on ecosystem sanitation and nutrition drives for the homeless. She also ran track and was a key member of the distance medley team. During her junior year, her basketball team won the Central Iowa Metro League and clinched a berth to state tournament.

Kelsey later attended the Salon Professional Academy and she currently works at Rick Mosley Hair in Des Moines. Through her established professional relationships, Kelsey has raised awareness for issues related to environmental sustainability and water quality through the Audubon Society’s “Trashion Fashion Show” as a model and costume designer.

Outside of her professional and philanthropic endeavors, Kelsey’s dedication to wellness keeps her quite busy. In addition to her daily morning workout, she enjoys researching and cooking more nutrient-sensible alternatives to her favorite dishes which include BLTs, pasta, and seafood. During the warmer months, you can find Kelsey outside appreciating the beautiful Iowa scenery on bike rides, while boating, or even laying out at the pool. Kelsey’s infatuation with foreign culture has already taken her to three countries and she plans to visit her fourth next year.
