17 year old Talia Turco, of Lincoln, was crowned Miss Rhode Island Teen USA 2009 on September 7, 2008, in Roberts Hall on the Rhode Island College campus. Born on January 22, 1991, Talia is the daughter of Clemente and Annamarie Turco and the younger sister of Adriana.
Talia is a senior at Lincoln High School. After graduating, Talia plans to pursue a degree in nursing. Her love for children has triggered her desire to become a pediatric nurse. She will be volunteering at Women & Infants' Hospital in October.
Talia is employed part-time at Abercrombie Kids and still finds time to pursue her interests in modeling, physical fitness and time with friends and family. She has modeled for Dynasty in Boston and has played field hockey, soccer and competitive gymnastics. Talia is also passionate about travel and especially loves traveling to Italy to visit with family.
Talia sees herself as a compassionate, well-rounded and motivated young lady who tries to find the good in each person she encounters. Talia believes that every person regardless of background or personal challenges, should try to achieve one's goals in life to make his or her dreams come true.
Talia will be representing Rhode Island in appearances throughout the year and competing in the Miss Teen USA pageant this summer. She is hopeful that she will be the first to take the national title home to Rhode Island.
