October 28, 2007 was a date Danielle Scimeca will never forget. With family and friends in the audience she was crowned Miss Colorado Teen USA 2008. Although it was the outcome she had hoped for it was still a wonderful surprise.

“I’m just so happy because this was something I did for no one but myself, which makes it even more fulfilling.” said Danielle.

A senior at Fossil Ridge High School, Danielle’s favorite classes include psychology, modern literature, and history. Even though she considers her family the most important people in her life, Danielle would like to attend college out of state in hopes of becoming even more independent.

Tennis is a huge part of Danielle’s life and has helped in defining who she is. “Having sports in my daily life has made me determined, competitive, and I would like to think, mentally strong; I can honestly say that I don’t know where I would be today if I didn’t deal with winning and losing on a weekly basis.” One of her favorite quotes is “Never confuse a single defeat with a final defeat.”-F. Scott Fitzgerald.

In addition to tennis, Danielle played competitive soccer for many years, and enjoys music, dance, and reading a great love story. She can also be found cheering on her sisters at their many activities. “My sisters are my life. There is no greater feeling in the world than seeing someone you are so close to, do what they love!” says Danielle.

Having the honor of being Miss Colorado Teen USA 2008 is something Danielle hopes will bring her many amazing and positive opportunities and experiences. She is ready for the exciting year ahead and all the great things she can accomplish personally and for others.
