Melaynee White, Miss Fairbanks, poses in front of a KC-135 Stratotanker at the Alaska Air National Guard’s 168th Wing, where she serves as a civilian maintenance worker with the Civil Engineering Squadron. White is responsible for maintaining base infrastructure and supporting mission readiness through facility and grounds upkeep. She recently competed in the Miss America competition and will serve as Miss Fairbanks for the next year, giving a voice to women in trades. By redefining what it means to wear a crown, Malaynee White is proving it’s possible to bridge grit and grace, empowering the next generation of women to do the same.
