Rachelle di Stasio, the newly crowned Miss New York USA, shares her journey of overcoming childhood trauma and using her voice to inspire other women. She is set to compete for the Miss USA 2023 title in Reno, Nevada.
This former ballerina traded tutus for tiaras — but first she had to overcome a brutal childhood trauma.
Draped in a custom gold Jovani couture gown that took nearly four months to complete, the former bunhead won over the judges at the Performing Arts Center at Purchase College by being her “authentic self.” ahead of the Miss New York 2021 pageant. “I’ve been able to use my voice and strength to get me where I am today, and want to let other women know that their past doesn’t affect their self-worth or who they are.”
“It was a new level of awakening of my self-worth,” she told The Post after taking home her Miss New York crown.
