Erika Leigh Kruse-  Judge for RI and Maine Junior Miss    An expert at interview techniques, pageant preparation, public speaking and image consultation, Erika has developed a training program that yields proven results.   She offers personalized training on how to improve your presentation and convey the most compelling message.  Many coaches concentrate purely on general concepts and theories, but Erika focuses on giving you hands-on, practical knowledge combined with theory and technique that you can, and will, actually use.  Some other coaches may attempt to offer coaching over the phone or with newsletters and gimmicks, but it is impossible to offer comprehensive effective coaching just verbally or through the printed page.  Erika's coaching is complete and thorough; her guidance, observations and analysis of the content along with delivery, demeanor, and appearance all combine to make the difference between an acceptable interview and a fantastic one!   Moreover, unlike many other pageant coaches, Erika's experience both as the daughter of a Miss America national finalist and as a former pageant finalist herself, means she can counsel you on maintaining your focus and confidence not only during the interview but during the entire competition process.

Coaching clients of all ages, and from across the country, her instruction and expertise is individually tailored to each client and to each client’s personal goal. You may have the ability, talent, appearance and intelligence, but whether you know how to convey those qualities in the most effective and convincing way is what really matters.  There are some other consultants and coaches, but no one else has the unparalleled combination of professional credentials, teaching ability, instruction skills and personal experience that PageantPrep can offer you.
