She has been featured in the Buffalo News, the Connecticut Post, Jamestown Post, Cheektowaga Times, the South Florida Sun Sentinel and the Palm Beach Post. Dawn has also appeared on such news programs as Dateline NBC's "Power of Persuasion" which addressed how attitude and appearance affects our treatment in society. Most recently she appeared on Access Sacramento's Live Wire Program where she was interviewed on her Bullying Prevention assembly for middle schools. Dawn is a graduate of the American Musical and Dramatic Academy of NYC. In 2006 she was crowned Ms. Florida and later went on to capture the national title of Ms. United States.
