A native of Metairie, Kristen Girault was crowned Miss Louisiana USA on 27 October 2012 and represented Louisiana at the Miss USA 2013 pageant in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Miss Louisiana USA 2013 Kristen Girault is a 2009 graduate of Mount Carmel Academy and currently attends Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center School of Nursing in New Orleans, LA, where she is involved in the Student Government Association and Student Nurses Association.
Dancing has always been a large part in Kristen?s life. She began dancing at the age of 3 and was a member of her high school dance team, the Carmelettes. Kristen is currently a three-year member of the New Orleans Saintsations, the official Cheerleaders for the World Champion New Orleans Saints.
With this title Kristen wants to continue being an advocate for a healthy lifestyle and talk about the importance of eating healthy and getting out and being active. She also wants to actively work with some of her favorite charities and causes: American Heart Association, the Red Campaign fighting heart disease in women, Breast Cancer Awareness, Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, Children?s Miracle Network, and Habitat for Humanity. She is looking forward to teaching children and women the importance of following their dreams and enjoying the journey along the way, because it is through that journey that you develop and find your true self.
When she is not studying, Kristen enjoys traveling, running the levees, reading, cooking, and watching her two favorite sports teams, the LSU Tigers and New Orleans Saints.
