Christina Clarke Miss Washington USA

On October 9th, 2011, Christina Clarke, a brunette beauty born and raised in the Evergreen State, captured the crown of Miss Washington USA 2012. The former Seattle Seahawks Cheerleader will represent the great state of Washington at nationals in the highly distinguished MISS USA® pageant.

Motivated by helping others and being a positive role model, Christina has proven she is more than just a pageant princess. Involved in 4-H as a teen, she embraces selflessness and has made tremendous efforts to serve her state, working with organizations including Project Homeless Connect, United Way, Hope for Horses, and as a member of the Sea Gals, she worked with organizations including Seattle's Battered Women's Shelter, Special Olympics, and more.

Raised in a supportive family of Christian faith, Christina has developed and maintained honest morals and values. "What you receive is directly connected to how you believe", a quote given to her at young age, is a life lesson that she has embodied and her goal is to share that simple yet significant message across the nation.

Currently attending Bellevue College, Christina's passion for people has led her to pursue a Master's Degree in Psychology, as she plans on becoming a counselor for children and teens in years to come. She feels that our future, our youth, deserves a positive public role model and having traveled overseas to perform for our troops and their families on a USO tour, she is devoted to making a difference in children and teen lives throughout the entire world.

In both her personal and professional life, Christina has demonstrated her immense dedication and drive towards achieving her goals. She has been a competitive horseback rider for fourteen years, a singer, guitarist, professional cheerleader, softball state champion, academic achiever, and more.

As Miss Washington USA 2012, Christina Clarke embraces her title as a promise to be an outstanding representative for her state and will fulfill her responsibilities as a positive public role model by making appearances on behalf of charitable organizations and sponsors as she prepares for the MISS USA® pageant in 2012.
