My daughter Alexandria Wolfe started in pageantry at the age of 6. Like a lot of mothers and daughters, this was new to the both of us. We spent 7 years wading through on our own. Alexandria was crowned 2019 National American Miss Texas Pre-Teen, 2021 USA National Miss Texas Jr Teen, and 2021-2022 International United Miss Texas Jr Teen. We were attending National pageants, but just couldn’t break into the Top 5. The time came when I could no longer be a “mom coach.” Teenage years took hold, and we needed help to advance.
​
Kari Volen, of Pageant Coaching & Designs, has been wonderful as a coach for Alexandria these past 2 years! She was exactly what we were looking for, and more! Kari is always punctual, professional, and her costs are very fair and reasonable. She is caring, compassionate, and kind. Most importantly, Alexandria enjoys and respects her and her coaching skills. Kari helped Alexandria in developing her platform “Embrace the Earth” and improving her interview skills. She worked with her on her walking for fun fashion, athletic wear, and formal wear. Kari has always embraced Alexandria’s uniqueness, offering opinions on interview outfits, gowns, and even shoes, but always letting Alexandria embrace her own style—often commenting that Alexandria always reminded her of “Old Hollywood Style.” Kari has always found a way for Alexandria to continue to promote her passions for the Earth and the animals, instilling in her the confidence and preparation needed for interview room and on stage. I cannot recommend Kari Volen enough! With her guidance and coaching, my daughter is now the current Teen Miss Earth USA 2024! I wish I would have hired her years ago!!
