Former Miss America joins Constellation as engineer, spokesperson

By ExchangeMonitor

There are lots of new workers joining the nuclear industry these days, but Baltimore-based Constellation Energy has perhaps the only one to list “former Miss America” on her resume.

Constellation announced in a Monday press release it hired former Miss America Grace Stanke as a full-time employee working as both an engineer and a spokesperson for nuclear energy.

During Stanke’s 2023 reign as Miss America, the recent University of Wisconsin-Madison nuclear engineering graduate often touted nuclear’s role as a carbon-free energy source. Stanke also was a co-op, something akin to an intern, with Constellation between 2020 and 2022.

In addition to speaking engagements and media interviews, Stanke’s new Constellation role will include part of a group responsible for designing reactor fuel placement and core design for the company’s 21 nuclear reactors, the company said.
