Pageant career[edit]
Miss Oregon 2011[edit]
In March 2011, McGowan was crowned Miss Linn-Benton County 2011.[3] She entered the Miss Oregon pageant in late June 2011 as one of 22 qualifiers for the state title.[4][5] McGowan's competition talent was a classic vocal performance of the aria "Chanson Boheme" from the opera Carmen. Her platform was "Eating Disorder Awareness: Empowerment Through Attitude".[6][7]
McGowan won the competition on Saturday, July 2, 2011, when she received her crown from outgoing Miss Oregon titleholder Stephenie Steers.[8][9] She earned more than $10,000 in scholarship money and other prizes from the state pageant. As Miss Oregon, her activities included public appearances across the state of Oregon.[10]
Vying for Miss America[edit]
McGowan was Oregon's representative at the Miss America 2012 pageant in Las Vegas, Nevada, in January 2012.[11][12] She was not one of the 16 semi-finalists for the national crown and earned a $3,000 non-finalist scholarship prize.[13]
Personal life and education[edit]
McGowan was born in Des Moines, Iowa, and raised in suburban Waukee, Iowa.[10] She is a 2009 graduate of Waukee High School.[10] Her father is Dan McGowan and her mother is Kathy McGowan.[14]
From 2009 through 2011, McGowan was a student at Oregon State University studying communications.[2] After her year as Miss Oregon, McGowan transferred to Portland State University where she studied philosophy.[15]
