Hi! My name is Jaimye Lynn Wininger. Welcome to my campaign page for the Miss Earth USA "Beauties for a Cause" charitable giving challenge. 

About Me

I am a 21-year-old attending Florida Atlantic University earning a degree in communication studies with a minor in dance. Although at just 18, I moved across the country to peruse my dreams in modeling, my heart belongs to South Dakota. I was raised in small town Brookings, SD where I grew up spending most of my time outdoors hunting, fishing, camping, and growing a pumpkin patch or in a dance studio. At a young age, I was taught the values of hard work, community, dedication, and kindness, and for that I am forever thankful. 

Giving back to my community is so important to me. As someone who has personally struggled with mental health and is passionate about women's wellness, I decided to help others by launching my own women's health and wellness podcast in 2021. After receiving an abundance of love and support, I decided to take it a step further by releasing my own loungewear clothing line, where, as a descendant of the Lakota Sioux Tribe I am able to give back to my community by donating a percentage of the proceeds to reservations across South Dakota.
