At 9 years old, Alayna is already an incredible inspiration. Diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor in 2022, she has displayed remarkable resilience, courage, and a heart full of compassion. Her mission is to bring hope to children battling illnesses, spreading joy through her visits to children’s hospitals across the country, and reminding everyone that with enough heart, dedication, and hard work, they can become whatever they dream to be.
Alayna’s passion for making a difference shines in everything she does. Through her Rodeo Hope for Christmas initiative, she spreads the holiday spirit directly to young patients, delivering meaningful gifts like belt buckles, toys, and more. Beyond hospitals, she brings her love for rodeo to life by singing the National Anthem at events and sharing her mission with kids at rodeos, creating moments of joy and connection that inspire others to believe in their own strength and potential.
We couldn’t be more excited to watch Alayna shine this year as Little Miss Rodeo Universe, bringing light, hope, and inspiration along side Kaili Hill Miss Rodeo Universe. This year will be unforgettable, and we are so proud to stand by them as they show the world just how much of an impact they can make together!
Meet Kaili Lorelei Hill, a 23-year-old visionary redefining what it means to wear the crown. Born and raised in Reno, Nevada, Kaili’s love for the Western way of life began at just five years old when she first stepped into the rodeo queen world. What started as a childhood dream quickly became her life’s calling, fueled by grit, faith, and a deep desire to make a difference.
A graduate of the University of Nevada, Reno, Kaili holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management with a minor in Entrepreneurship. She combines her business background with her lifelong passion for rodeo to lead with purpose, professionalism, and heart. Through her platform, Leave A Legacy, she inspires others to chase their dreams, give back to their communities, and embrace the values of the Western lifestyle: integrity, resilience, and compassion.
Kaili has traveled across the United States and to countries including Canada and Australia, attending clinics, judging competitions, volunteering, and promoting the sport of rodeo and agriculture on an international scale. Her dedication to education and outreach has touched countless lives, from teaching students about horsemanship, cattle ranching, and beef byproducts, to visiting children’s hospitals with her beloved mini cow, Sven, to bring comfort and smiles.
Her leadership extends beyond the arena, mentoring young girls who dream of becoming rodeo queens and empowering women to find confidence in who they are. With every event she attends and every person she meets, Kaili strives to share the magic of the Western way of life, the heart, hard work, and compassion that make it truly special.
As Miss Rodeo Universe, Kaili is building a legacy of inspiration and inclusivity, opening doors for women and young ladies nearly of all ages and locations to represent the sport they love. Her journey reminds us that true royalty isn’t defined by the crown you wear, but by the hearts you touch and the lives you change along the way.
