Lou Schieffelin

Lou Schieffelin, 24, proudly represented Palm Beach Island at the Miss Florida USA pageant this past weekend and with immense gratitude she brought home the coveted title. A professional model for over 16 years, an aspiring pilot, and the granddaughter of one of Florida’s legendary ranchers, Lou embodies the very spirit of the Sunshine State: resilient, radiant, and deeply rooted in tradition. Her journey within the Miss Universe Organization began with a transformative reign as Miss Florida Teen USA in 2018, a year that shaped her purpose and passion. She went on to place in the Top 10 at Miss Teen USA, and now, with renewed dedication, she sets her sights on making history by bringing Florida its first Miss USA crown. With a heart grounded in grace, driven by grit, and unwaveringly devoted to service, Lou Schieffelin is more than a titleholder, she is a beacon of inspiration. Introducing your MISS FLORIDA USA 2025!
