Allie’s triumphant walk across the stage in Orlando, Florida on August 1, 2015 was

just the beginning of a journey that has, and will, take her all over the country

during her year of service as Miss America’s Outstanding Teen 2016. She travels

speaking to audiences about her platform “Making $ense - Becoming Financially

Responsible” and acts as the official National Teen Goodwill Ambassador for

Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, a non-profit organization dedicated to

saving and improving the lives of children by raising funds for children’s hospitals.

CMNH is the national platform partner of the Miss America’s Outstanding Teen

Organization.

Allie is a 17-year-old student at Gilford High School. She is the daughter of Richard

and Karen Nault and resides in Gilford, New Hampshire. Along with the title of

Miss America’s Outstanding Teen 2016, Allie won a $25,000 scholarship provided

by the Harris Rosen Foundation and the Orlando Scholarship Foundation, Inc. to

put towards her college education. For the talent portion of the competition, she

performed a dance/twirl routine to a Lady Gaga mix. Allie was also named the

recipient of the “Teens in Action” Award for her outstanding commitment to her

platform. She earned an additional $1,000 scholarship.
