Miranda O'Bryan is Miss South Dakota 2023.

This interview originally aired on In the Moment on SDPB Radio.

This year's Miss South Dakota title belongs to Miranda O'Bryan.

O'Bryan earned the crown and sash with a jazz-rendition of Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" as her talent and a Rapid City reading program as her community service initiative.

She joins In the Moment to discuss her crown and "Page Turners: Fall in Love with Reading." Her program has donated over 10,000 books, started a podcast and put up Little Free Libraries around her community.

O'Bryan said she encourages anyone considering joining the competition to reach out to her for mentorship and guidance.
