A 19-year-old born and raised Wisconsinite, Miss Wisconsin Teen USA 2021 Shreya Gundelly is proud and beyond blessed to wear “Wisconsin” across her heart for the next year and on the Miss Teen USA Stage this November.

Two years ago, Shreya created her own non-profit organization called I.D.E.A. Speaking to young girls and boys across the state of Wisconsin about the importance of inclusion and acceptance, Shreya shares her story of self-love while being bullied, and looked at differently due to the color of her skin. After six years of passion and determination, Shreya is proud to show children throughout the country that with hard work you can achieve your dreams, regardless of where you come from.

Now, as a freshman at New York University studying on the pre-med track, Shreya aspires to pursue the medical field. Not only that, but Shreya serves as an active member on NYU’s South Asian Board, hosting events and showcases throughout the year.
​
Shreya’s mission as Miss Wisconsin Teen USA, is to serve as a role model, and put her state on the map. She hopes that with this title she gets the opportunity to not simply grace the Miss Teen USA stage, but touch the hearts of individuals everywhere.
