Each week, I share no-fluff pageant coaching that helps you win. Both on stage and off. After coaching titleholders in Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss America, and 350+ pageant interviews, this isn’t theory. It’s what works.
👑 About Haley
Haley Poe is a passionate advocate, scholar, and future physician dedicated to protecting both human health and the environment. She is the founder of the Microplastic Awareness Project (MAP), an initiative focused on educating communities about the harmful effects of microplastics and driving tangible change. Through MAP, Haley organizes cleanups, promotes single-use plastic reduction, and champions legislation to safeguard our planet and its people.
In Pennsylvania, Haley spearheaded House Bill 1415, which, once passed, will require annual testing for PFAS—cancer-causing chemicals found in microplastics—in local watersheds. She is also collaborating with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Environmental Protection Agency on policies that would require warning labels on all plastic bottles, informing consumers of their microplastic content and associated health risks.
A proud Erie, Pennsylvania native, Haley earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology with a pre-medical concentration and a minor in Healthcare Ethics from Gannon University. She plans to attend the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine to pursue her dream of becoming an endocrinologist, with a vision to address environmental factors that impact human health. Her work blends science, service, and advocacy—proving that meaningful change starts with knowledge and the courage to act.
