Early life and education
Wiser was born in Bozeman, Montana, on August 2, 1987, to Betty and Lee Wiser.[1] She is a summa cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, 2009 graduate of the University of Denver with a degree in communications management and minors in chemistry & leadership.[2][3] After graduation, she enrolled in the pre-medical post-baccalaureate program at Montana State University.[3]
Pageant career
On June 18, 2009, Brittany Wiser entered her first-ever beauty pageant.[4][5] On June 20, she was crowned Miss Montana 2009.[6][7] Unlike most state pageants in the Miss America system, Montana does not use preliminary local pageants to limit entrants to the state-level competition.[8] In January 2010, she competed in the Miss America 2010 pageant in Las Vegas, Nevada.[2][9] Wiser was a Top-10 finalist for the Quality of Life Award. Her platform was suicide prevention and her talent was singing.[1][10]
In September 2010, Wiser won the title of Miss Montana USA 2011.[5][11] She competed in the Miss USA 2011 pageant at the Theatre for the Performing Arts in the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas Strip in January 2011.[12]
