Who Is Emma Broyles?
Emma Broyles, a 20-year-old student at Arizona State University majoring in biomedical sciences and aiming to be a dermatologist, was named Miss America 2022.
Emma, a sophomore, said she fell in love with the university campus and added: “I really felt at home when I visited ASU and didn’t get that same feeling when touring other colleges, so I knew that ASU was the institution for me.”
Broyles collaborated with Special Olympics on her social impact presentation, which she won in the preliminary rounds. Her older brother, who has down syndrome, became a competitive athlete, and Broyles began volunteering with Special Olympics at age 12.
“As a sibling of an individual with an intellectual disability and a Special Olympics athlete, I have seen the positive influence Special Olympics has on the lives of persons with intellectual disabilities, their families, and communities,” Emma said in discussions with ASU news.
“Special Olympics is an organization that my family and I have supported throughout my life, and I am so excited to continue to share its mission on the Miss America stage.”
