A 19-year-old Indian American born in Chennai, Caitlin Sandra Neil, was crowned Miss India USA 2024 at the annual pageant held in New Jersey.
Currently a second-year student at the University of California, she expressed on social media that the crown represents more to her, saying, “The crown is not just a title, but a platform – one I will use to serve, uplift, and lead with purpose.”
She has also mentioned that the experience of winning Miss India USA 2024 has given her another purpose, particularly amplifying voices that deserve to be heard. Having moved to the United States from India at the age of six, this current achievement enables her to celebrate and connect with both the cultures.
