Meet The Directors
Alyson Nicely & Nikita Klotzsche
Alyson and Nikita met in 2020 and have been close ever since! Pageantry is a common link between the two and they are beyond excited to revamp the America's Ultimate Queen system.
America's Ultimate Queen was a national system that Alyson was a titleholder in. After several successful years, the original director had to close the system due to health issues. In 2021, she decided to pass the system on to Alyson who took over with open arms. Alyson quickly asked Nikita to be her co-director and the two have been working tirelessly to revamp and launch America's Ultimate Queen. They can't wait to continue to grow AUQ!
