Bio:

After Kristen Marie Motil graduated from high school, she embarked on a modeling career by signing a world wide contract with Elite Model Management. She has traveled extensively throughout the United States, Europe and Asia. Kristen feels modeling has exposed her to many different customs, cultures and traditions which has allowed her to embrace people of many diverse backgrounds.

Winning the Miss Tennessee Pageant has opened up an area for Kristen that she has long wanted to participate in…community involvement. Kristen’s goal after winning the crown was to take the title and involve herself in charities, community and the state of Tennessee. From Franklin to Memphis to Shelbyville to Bristol and everywhere in between, Kristen’s vision was to promote the spirit of the crown of Miss Tennessee USA by sharing her enthusiasm for volunteering, promoting events to the people of Tennessee.

She has also appeared on Fox News, More at Midday, and Tennessee Mornings to promote upcoming events and charities. One of her biggest honors was to be asked to make a Public Service Announcement for television to keep music in schools to be broadcast throughout Tennessee.

Quotes:
"Playing the trumpet gave me the foundation that was necessary to prepare for my year as Miss Tennessee USA. It taught me discipline, dedication, passion, confidence and a sense of fun. And most importantly, it taught me to be a team player because you are one instrument in a band that must work well with others to make beautiful music."
