She highlighted her autistic brother and discussed autism awareness during the competition's preliminary talent round.
According to a social media post, her platform, The SPARK Project, is devoted to autism safety and education.
Watch the video below:
In 2020, she graduated with a degree in psychology from the University of Texas at Dallas, and in 2022, she became a citizen of the United States.
This crown is for every young child, teenager, and adult on the spectrum who felt alienated, abandoned, stereotyped, and unseen because of their different abilities.
This crown is for young immigrant girls who had to live a life different from everyone else because they were caregivers before they were students, friends, or teammates. This crown is for those who dare to be different.
According to The Austin Statesman, Addo-Yobo, who won the Miss Texas 2024 competition, will represent Texas in the Miss America pageant and receive a $20,000 scholarship.
