To everyone who has stood by my side during this journey, THANK YOU! I could not have achieved this wonderful dream without my support system. To my family, thank you for encouraging me to continue after this crazy dream and pushing me to improve each day. Oklahoma, I’m so excited about being your Miss Oklahoma USA 2021 and I cannot wait to represent you on the Miss USA stage here in TULSA this coming November! Let’s go OKLAHOMA!!! "

The diva uses her social media to make an impact on society by normalizing and encouraging young people to be comfortable in their bodies. She shared, "IMPERFECTIONS are the marks of AUTHENTICITY. We all have something about our bodies that we wish we could change - whether it is wrinkles, stretch marks, or our size. I think that each "imperfection," tells a story about the beauty we hold inside. Love the skin you’re in and embrace every bit of your being. There is only one YOU. "
In her journey towards the crown, the diva feels blessed and grateful for all the opportunities that came her way and helped her to be strong, confident, and positive about herself and the work she was doing. Albreuna is dedicated, determined, and is focused on her goals in life, and is confident that she will perform her best at Miss USA 2021 to win the crown and represent the USA at Miss Universe 2021. In one of her posts, she shared, "I am resilient. I am magnetic. I am dynamic. I am flawed. I am still learning. I am still growing. I'm still here. I am ready to embrace this next chapter of life and all that it may bring!.”
